I would personally be happy to see you upload the Gajim OTR plugin,
and become the primary maintainer for it, under our team's umbrella.
But maybe other team members will want to get more involved :)
Now, I have a few questions:
1. The current state of upstream work on this plugin is a bit
confusing. The homepage [1] says bugs live in Trac [2], while I've
seen the author re-create on GitHub [3] a bug filed in Trac.
Any idea where is the preferred place to forward Debian bugs?
2. Upstream wrote [4] "I don't have a lot of time for gotr right now"
five months ago, and indeed, an important bug like the "OTR logs
conversations" [5] one has seen no update since then. Are you
confident such problems will be addressed in a timely manner by
upstream, in the future?
3. I see you've called the source package gajim-plugins. If the idea
is to potentially maintain a bunch of non-OTR Gajim plugins in the
source package, then I doubt it's appropriate to put it under the
OTR team's umbrella. So, perhaps a dedicated source package would
be better. What do you think?
