Bug#662107: O: kismet -- 802.11 wireless network sniffer/IDS - core



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

kismet's current maintainer Francois Gurin <matrix@debian.org> seems
to be MIA sincce 2008.
May I propose to orphan the package?

I would also be willing to adopt the package and I have already
prepared an update:
http://mentors.debian.net/package/kismet

What is the official procedure to follow?

Best regards,
Nick

The package description is:
 Kismet is an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and
 intrusion detection system.  It will work with any wireless card
 that supports raw monitoring (rfmon) mode and can sniff 802.11b,
 802.11a, and 802.11g traffic.
 .
 It can use festival to play audio alarms for network events,
 can speak out network summary on discovery, and optionally works with
 gpsd to map scanning.
