Well, I contacted Goswin's sponsor, Peter Palfrader <weasel@debian.org>,
to ask him about Bochs' ITP and have any news of Goswin. See the
log message in this ITP (#78642).

I'd like to maintain Bochs if Goswin doesn't come back, but
it's a pain to package it from scratch when there are complete
packages of Bochs made. IIRC, Goswin had set a package
repository somewhere I can't remember right now. I'm looking
through upstream's mailing lists to see what i can find.

Will post here if there's something new.

Regards,
