I currently have quite a few packages and I am looking to drastically reduce the numbers because I am not going to have a lot of time for maintainership work for a while. At this point I am not intending to orphan anything but that may well happen if I still have lots of packages in January. They roughly split into 5 groups and I have detailed them at the bottom of this message. If you are not currently a Debian developer then you will need a sponsor in order to take on the packages as I will also not have the time to sponsor any individuals interested in maintaining any of these. Please get in touch with me before making uploads to alter the Maintainer field as there may be more than one person/group interested. Thanks, Stephen Quinney 1) The first group I would prefer to be taken on by the Debian Perl team as I consider that these 8 packages are quite important to Debian. According to popcon they have over 500 users and in several cases they have 1000s of users libcache-cache-perl libclass-accessor-perl libdate-manip-perl libexporter-lite-perl libio-string-perl libregexp-common-perl libxml-namespacesupport-perl libxml-simple-perl 2) The second group are all associated with Class::DBI, I would prefer that some person/group takes the whole set as they are quite strongly related to each other. libcgi-untaint-perl libclass-dbi-abstractsearch-perl libclass-dbi-asform-perl libclass-dbi-fromcgi-perl libclass-dbi-loader-perl libclass-dbi-loader-relationship-perl libclass-dbi-pager-perl libclass-dbi-perl libclass-dbi-pg-perl libclass-dbi-plugin-perl libclass-dbi-plugin-retrieveall-perl libclass-dbi-plugin-type-perl libclass-trigger-perl libclass-whitehole-perl libdata-page-perl libdbix-contextualfetch-perl libima-dbi-perl liblingua-en-inflect-number-perl libsql-abstract-perl libuniversal-moniker-perl 3) The third set are related to request-tracker (RT) which I used to maintain and it may be that the team looking after RT will be willing to pick up some of these. libcache-simple-timedexpiry-perl libclass-returnvalue-perl libdbix-searchbuilder-perl libhtml-scrubber-perl liblocale-maketext-fuzzy-perl liblocale-maketext-lexicon-perl libmodule-versions-report-perl libtext-quoted-perl libtree-simple-perl 4) The fourth set are related to Template Toolkit libcalendar-simple-perl libtemplate-plugin-calendar-simple-perl libtemplate-plugin-class-perl libtemplate-plugin-clickable-perl libtemplate-plugin-yaml-perl 5) The fifth set are the random assorted remainder libapache-authcookie-perl libconfig-yaml-perl libstring-format-perl libuniversal-exports-perl libuniversal-require-perl libyaml-syck-perl
