Bug#529695: O: abcde -- A Better CD Encoder

[Colin Tuckley <colint@debian.org>]

I spotted this bug while looking through the wnpp lists.

The package certainly looks very un-maintained with approx 70 bugs.

I'm interested in adopting it.

I took a look at upstream which now seems to be a project on code.google.com
run by "djmooch" and which is active with a new version available.

There is a changelog update in the upstream svn repro for a Debian version:

abcde (2.3.99.7-1) unstable; urgency=low
Jesus Climent <jesus.climent@hispalinux.es>  Sun, 22 Feb 2009 13:30:02 +0000

However it looks like this never got uploaded or maybe it was rejected for
some reason.

Looking in db.d.o for Jesus Climent, he hasn't been seen since Sept 2008,
his web site http://www.pumuki.org/ seems to be dead and Mario said he isn't
answering email.

I will try emailing him and will also ask upstream if they have had any
contact with him but it does look like he's MIA.

Colin
