inactive maintainer for libapache-mod-dav



Hi,

the maintainer of libapache-mod-dav seems to be no longer active.
Following obersvations seem to support this:

1. Important bugs for about 200 days without any reaction
2. Invalid mail adress
3. No response to mails, even at other adresses.

In detail:

1. See http://bugs.debian.org/src:libapache-mod-dav

2./3. I wrote to Yann Aubert on 17. April to the address
yann.aubert@internetfrance.com and asked about whether I could help
fixing bugs. This message bounced almost immediately. So I forwarded
my mail to an adress I found in recent use with google, that is
yann.aubert@free.fr. As I got no answer, I sent a remainder on the 26.
April to three adresses (I found the last with a more intensive search
on google), that are yann.aubert@internetfrance.com,
yann.aubert@free.fr and ynaubert@club-internet.fr. Needless to say
that the first and last bounced and I still got no answer.

Well, here we are. Though I have waited only about 14 days, I have
little to no hope to get a helpful answer from the maintainer. The
package is practically unmaintained since more than 200 days.

Though the current state of libapache-dav-mod works for me, I'm not
happy with the state the package is in. I could maintain the package
if this is wanted (though I would need a sponsor, as I'm not a debian
developer). I have maintained one software packages as upstream
maintainer some time ago, and are currently helping bug fixing mgetty
(in good colaboration with the maintainer). As the package works for
me, I have no hurry with updating the package, if this seems
appropriate.


Cheers,
Andi
