Latest state:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2015/08/msg00377.html
I meanwhile uploaded to
http://mentors.debian.net/package/libburn
but goofed by uploading a state with debhelper version 9,
which produces source packages without warning but fails
with debuild -b.
debian/control and debian/compat would need a change from
"9" back to "8".
But i am unsure yet, whether it is possible and acceptable
to overwrite the upload by dput -f.

I still have to learn a lot.

There is the maintainer team of dvd+rw-tools, cdparanoia,
and dvdisaster:
https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=pkg-opt-media-team%40lists.alioth.debian.org
I plan to ask for cooperation.
Maybe they take the plight of maintaining the Debian
infrastructure in exchange for me diagnosing bug reports
and uploading fixed packages.
But first i need to get libburn and the other two ready
for sponsorship. The bug reports of my packages need to
be re-arranged, too. Half is attributed to a package
which is not in charge to fix the bug.

Not much to see there, indeed.
But before we burry this team, i have to ask Mario.
Haven't had contact with Simon and Mats for a longer time.
Have a nice day :)
