Bug#819469: ITP: coyim --
Hi Jonathan,
just an update: the largest batch of dependencies just made it through
the NEW queue, with only golang-github-thecreeper-go-notify and
golang-github-twstrike-gotk3adapter currently waiting in there. I have
also finished my package for CoyIM myself (see link in the reference)
and I think it's ready for a first upload.
I am curious to hear your thoughts about the package and whether you
would be interested in collaborating. Alternatively, would you be happy
with me closing your ITP with my package?
Thanks and kind regards
Sascha
