@Hilmar
I am happy to package Encode::EUCJPASCII under the Debian Perl Team
umbrella. It does not look like an actively-developed module. I'll
file an ITP this week.
@Perl team
I also wonder whether the Debian Perl Team should adopt the Perl
packages of Taku Yasui (tach) to maintain going forwards, as tach has
not been active for quite some time [1],[2].
