Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request an adopter for the devscripts package.  I have had very
little time over recent months (years, even), and this package really
demands far more active maintenance than I am able to give it.

There are generally relatively few bugs but lots and lots of wishlist
requests.  With the prominence of the package, it is really important
that whoever takes it on is willing to do a significant amount of new
coding in bash and Perl, the two main languages used in the package.

If you are interested, please check out the BTS page
(http://bugs.debian.org/devscripts) to get some idea of the number and
range of current requests for features: some of these are quick, some
would require some major (re)coding.

The package is currently developed via an SVN repository on alioth,
and consists of numerous mostly-unrelated scripts, so could be easily
be managed by a small group of maintainers.

Thanks in advance!

   Julian
