It's complicated… Some threads where it's discussed: https://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2015/07/msg00052.html https://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2017/12/msg00034.html Long story short: until it's (maybe) replaced, it probably should be maintained by people aware of d-i specific things… I'm not sure whether an RFA would help here. Keeping the (strange, to say the least) status quo with debian-boot@ as Maintainer might be the easiest way?
