My fault, I misplaced the msgid of the mail from John Gorzen in Reply-to
instead of In-Reply-to, argh.

Speaking about your mail, I think it's your opinion, mine is different.

Jose Luis doesn't want just his name in some place, he has worked a lot
in bacula in the past, and I don't know why he can't remain as
maintainer or co-maitainer if he is going to work on it again.

Obviuosly if he is unable to maitain it or work on it, it should orphan
the package, but it seems that things are different.
