Bug#162607: ITA status report



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I retitled this bug to ITA in August 2003, with the intention that it be
one of the packages that I maintain to start being a DD.  I received a
friendly message in December asking, very politely, for a status report
[as a part of the process of clearing out old, dead, IPAs; very sensible].

Due to professional obligations in the fall, I have not gotten to the
state of gearing up to apply for DDevelopership.  I did do some looking
into the source code for xwave, however, and discovered that it was
_really_ old.  I haven't looked at it in a few months, but as I recall
right now, the last serious coding was 1996, and somebody had hacked on it
and fixed some stuff in 1999, but those were the last significant changes.

I'll look through it again in the next few weeks and verify this.  If my
recollection is true, then since I'm sure there are other sound editors
that work perfectly well that are maintained, and I'll probably propose
its removal from Debian as a maintained package.  If I don't get to it,
then I'll release the ITA and set it back to orphaned.  In either case, I
will update the status by the Superbowl.

Thanks for the ping, Frank.
