Yes, I'd be happy to pass packaging over to you. On the other side I'll continue to maintain the debian part of GOsa upstream, so maybe we find a mode of working that saves time on both sides. So I'll leave the gosa/goto packages the way they're now, waiting for you/Debian Edu to take over.

Sure, I'll leave it in the state as the gosa ones ;-) Hopefully someone is interested in taking the qpid packages. Lets see.

You're welcome and upstream is interested in helping Debian Edu / Debian to get their work done.
Cheers,
