I have noticed this confusion happens a lot and generates a lot of discussion on this list and elsewhere, which is suboptimal. It might be less confusing for everyone if autoremovals that probably aren't going to happen were just hidden from maintainers. If the autoremoval date is after the scheduled migration date and there is nothing blocking the migration except for the wait time, then there should be no need to mail the maintainer about it nor show the autoremoval on the DPT page. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
