Bug#391473: Team maintenance of systemimager

Oh.  I was not aware of that.

Is this for upstream development or for Debian specific stuff?  Do you
have links for these lists?

I also would like to see a smooth transition.  I can agree that an
immediate move should not be force if there is already an established
location.  However, I think that migrating the Debian-specific stuff to
Alioth has a number of benefits and I think it should be a goal once the
transition has stabilized.

I take no offense at your discomfort.  I have not contributed to
systemimager in the past, however I find myself using it more and more.
Thus, I'd like to get involved now.  I can't speak for the other
interested parties.  However, I can tell you that there is no need to
worry about my abilities.  I maintain or actively participate in the
team maintenance of 17 packages.  Additionally I have been taking a more
active role in QA work and even started sponsoring.

That sounds OK.  But again, I still think that the ultimate goal should
be a move to Alioth.
