I just forgit to mention: Since you want to package casacore, could you
"officially" announce this? For this, you should rename the bug name of
#686924 so that it starts with "ITP" ("Intend To Package"), and put
yourself as the bug owner.

I've already approved you :-)
It would be nice to put casacore under the umbrella of Debian-Astro.
This would mainly mean that you should move the repository (back) to the
Alioth server. This would make it easier for all of us to review and
contribute (if needed). Also, the maintainer should then be
Debian Astronomy Maintainers <debian-astro-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>

Best regards

Ole
