Hi Tim,

We are looking to get virtuoso updated in Debian.  I was referred to
http://wiki.lod2.eu/display/LOD2DOC/Installation+of+a+local+LOD2+stack as an
alternative source and I see that you have done some work to update package
(from Ubuntu) for the 7.1 release.

Since you had some experience with it, would you be interested to
jump on board with maintaining virtuoso in Debian?  (there is seems to
be some work still needed to finalize the package you have created so it
could be accepted to stock Debian)

Hi,

On average, yes, I'm interested. 

I can't claim my Debian dev-knowledge is great, but we can certainly work on that. Maybe it would be sane to start by porting the Ubuntu-style packaging I did for LOD2 back to Debian?
