  Description     : Astropy package to reduce and calibrate astronomical spectra

The specreduce package aims to provide a data reduction toolkit for
optical and infrared spectroscopy, on which applications such as
pipeline processes for specific instruments can be built. The scope of
its functionality is limited to basic spectroscopic reduction, with
basic image processing steps (such as bias subtraction) instead
covered by ccdproc and other packages, data analysis by specutils and
visualization by specviz or cubeviz. A few examples will nevertheless
be provided of its usage in conjunction with these complementary
packages.

I will maintain the package within the Debian Astro team in Salsa:
