I fully understand how hard it is to find time for open-source
projects amidst a busy life. This reason is also why I'm looking to
reduce the number of packages I maintain. for Debian.

I wanted to ask how active the project was before I decided its status
in Debian. If development had ceased, I'd recommend the package be
removed from Debian. If it's still going strong, and it sounds like it
is, I'd recommend that it remain, but orphaned. I'm also trying to
find a developer interested in adopting the package.
Congratulations on the wedding!
