I e-mailed the owner of the ITP #221258, Roman Kreisel <roman.kreisel@web.de>, but received a "Mailzustellung fehlgeschlagen / Mail delivery failed". I tried searching for other e-mail addresses associated with his name, but could not find anything. If the package is presumably orphaned and no contact can be made with the owner of the ITP, what is the next step? Does someone with authority examine the situation and mark the package as "Orphaned", or is nothing done until contact can be made with the owner? Or am I missing the boat completely and I need to do more reading on Debian's policies? Sorry for all of the questions. -- Andrew Bennett potatosaladx@gmail.com http://potatosalad.gotdns.com
