Re: Mozilla Mothballed now, is a Seamonkey package a possibility?

As mentioned below by Joey from Debian weekly news, I personally would much
appreciate Debian Developers/ package maintainers to consider discussing
replacing the Mozilla browser , now superseded and mothballed by the Mozilla
foundation and replaced by the Seamonkey Council, and now I think Seamonkey
1.02 is the stable release.
This email was written in a Seamonkey 1.0 cmg, installed on a Kanotix box,
but a Deb package would be better perhaps, in the Debian repositories.
I greatly hope this will be considered soon in at Debian.
Thanks too Joey
All the Best in there

I am preparing a seamonkey package as my employers, Linspire, want to see
it in their Debian-derived distro (as well as Debian proper.) You can see
the current state of things at:
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/collab-maint/deb-maint/seamonkey/
The package works but I have mot uploaded it yet as lintian still shows a
number of policy violations.
I welcome help from anyone who would like to work on getting these
problems fixed. Going forward, team-maintainence would be a good idea.
