Bug#575162: texify upstream



From the copyright file for this package:

http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/t/texify/current/copyright

,------------------
| It was copied from /local/snacks/bin/ from the computers at 
| the Department of informatics, at the University of Oslo.
`-----------------

Which, is where the previous Debian maintainer is (or was) located.

With this maintainer retiring from Debian, it would seem that there is no 
longer any access to the "upstream" for this package.

Any prospective adopter should (a) see if the Department of informatics at the 
University of Oslo is interested in becoming an upstream for this package 
themselves (seems unlikely) or (b) be prepared to be both upstream and Debian 
maintainer. 

The package has relatively few bugs historically and a non-zero (but not huge) 
popcon so it can probably continue as a QA case for a while even if 
considered dead-upstream.

cheers
Stuart
