Dear release team,

please remove mate-system-tools from Debian testing (aka stretch). It
is not continued upstream anymore. A removal request has also been
sent to the ftpmasters for the package version found in unstable.

In that case there's no need for an explicit removal from testing. Once the unstable removal is processed it will automatically become a candidate for removal from testing.

Regards,

Adam

ah, ok. Then probably it is required to update the section "Removals from testing, stable and oldstable" on this [1] wiki page.

There it currently says:

"""
Removals from the oldstable, stable and testing distributions should be requested by e-mailing the (Stable) Release Managers debian-release@lists.debian.org or filing a bug against the release.debian.org pseudo-package (using the same format described in this document; additionally, you should be nice by usertagging your bugs with usertag rm and user release.debian.org@packages.debian.org).
"""

Whereas this may be true during the freeze phase, it doesn't seem to apply to non-freeze phases of Debian testing, right?

Greets,
Mike
