My apologies; I wasn't firing on all cylinders when I posted this only to -release and the DD involved, since if I had been, I would have remembered that -QA is the better place to check for MIAs... ----- Forwarded message from Joel Aelwyn <fenton@debian.org> ----- Envelope-to: fenton@lightbearer.com Delivery-date: Mon, 03 Jan 2005 06:13:59 +0000 From: Joel Aelwyn <fenton@debian.org> To: waldi@debian.org, debian-release@lists.debian.org Subject: Bastian Blank (MIA?) and zope-zwiki Mail-Followup-To: waldi@debian.org, debian-release@lists.debian.org So, upon running into some issues with it recently, I pulled up the QA page for zope-zwiki, and realized that it is, to put it mildly, "not in great shape". This message is to check with Bastian as to whether he is active, wants to keep zope-zwiki, and intends to update it (last upload 2003-05-03, looks to have never made it into Testing due to bugs, and has a Grave(security) bug open against it for 38 days now). If not, my intent is to package and upload a reasonably current version (since 0.37 and 0.38 should both fix the security bug, and there appears to be minimal use in fixing 0.18 as it is almost two years out of date), including a pass through the bug list to tag or close those that appear to be fixed by the new version. Since I need the package with relative speed, I'll be doing a local version ASAP, but I will wait until someone can either confirm Bastian as being a known MIA, or I get a response, to upload anything to the main archive (honestly, it's in bad enough shape that I don't feel doing an NMU just to have the default 1 week delay is going to do anyone much good). Instead, I'll wait at least one week before kidnapping the package, more if folks feel it is warranted. -- Joel Aelwyn <fenton@debian.org> ,''`. : :' : `. `' `- ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Joel Aelwyn <fenton@debian.org> ,''`. : :' : `. `' `-
