[needs-packaging] FASM

[Jure Sah]

Flat assembler is a fast assembly language compiler for the x86 architecture processors, which does multiple passes to optimize the size of generated machine code. It is self-compilable and versions for different operating systems are provided. All the versions are designed to be used from the system command line and they should not differ in behavior.

Not quite GPL but free and open source either way.

This is in Debian BTS and will soon be added to Debian archives. As Ubuntu has automatic syncing from Debian the package will most likely be automatic added to the next Ubuntu release: Maverick Meerkat (10.10).

I just noticed that it haven't bin any activity on the Debian ITP in over a year. It may be a good idea to contact the ITP owner and see what is delaying this.
