Hello, I have decided to orphan my packages for reasons that will follow shortly: thttpd -- Has a few bugs, nothing too difficult. Experience with C and networking programming is recommended. chkrootkit -- Trivial package, good for inexperienced maintainers. argus -- Moderately complex. Has very few bugs. argus-client -- Relatively simple. A new version needs to be uploaded immediately. tct -- Not recommended for inexperienced maintainers due to strange internal structure. These packages are being orphaned as a result of an unreasonable delay in my application. Around 1.7 years ago, I initially submitted my application. After going through the AM phase, which took a few good months, I awaited DAM approval. I waited for 6 months, during which I was never contacted by anyone relevant to the procedure. After being ignored both by the DAM and the frontdesk, I withdrew my application. A few months ago, I decided to give it another shot. I was advocated and moved to the AM queue. Shortly after I was removed from the queue and was told that my application is likely to experience the same inexplicable delay as before and that I have absolutely no chance of becoming a Debian developer. During all this time, no one has told me why the idea of me becoming a Debian developer is so ludicrously far-fetched. I must have contacted the DAM three times and other figures even more, not once receiving any sort of response. I reluctantly orphan my packages, as I don't want them to become unusable. Regards, Yotam Rubin
