I am wondering what the deal is with Luca and his packages, specifically httperf. httperf was uploaded once, 3.5 years ago. It has two important and one normal bug [0]. He has never responded to any bug on httperf. #215277: httperf: please update libssl dependency (1 year and 239 days) #308097: httperf errors out when requesting SSL sessions (30 days) #170060: Please move httperf to main archive (2 years and 198 days) Of his other packages [1], his latest upload was late 2003. He has a number of bugs open [2] as far back as 6 years ago. Many are unacknowledged, including two important bugs, one regarding a policy violation in a package description and another about a filename collision between a package he maintains and another package. Just wondering what, if anything, should be done. Personally, I would be willing to adopt httperf because I would like to see the bugs fixed. -Roberto [0] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=httperf [1] http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=luca@debian.org [2] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?maint=luca%40debian.org -- Roberto C.
