Re: How to get a BSA number?

Hi,

I asked for one a few months ago and got no reply. I just gave up and waited for the package to hit testing and then do a normal backport. I just sent off another request a few minutes ago. I'd be curious to see how this new request goes.

Hi,

https://backports.debian.org/Contribute/#index3h2

says that I should get a BSA number to announce an upload to backports
that contains a security fix.

Unfortunately, writing to backports-team@d.o does not seem to work, as
there doesn't seem to be anyone reading or erplying to mail there (at least not for the last two weeks).

Are the instructions out of date? How do I get a BSA number?

Cheers,
Nik
