If there are no objections I would like to claim this inactive ITP,
because the OP has not replied in over a year and because the package
does not appear on mentors.debian.net.

In terms of timeline, I expect to complete the initial packaging this
week and hope to see it in the archive by the end of the month.

Package name    : btrfsmaintenance
Version         : 0.3.1
Upstream Author : David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
URL             : https://github.com/kdave/btrfsmaintenance
License         : GPL-2
Programming Lang: SH
Description     : Automate btrfs maintenance tasks on mountpoints or directories
 This is a set of scripts for the btrfs filesystem that automates the
 following maintenance tasks: scrub, balance, trim, and defragment.
 .
 Tasks are enabled, disabled, scheduled, and customised from within a
 single text file.  The default configuration assumes an installation
 profile where the root filesystem is on btrfs.
 .
 The default values have been chosen as an even compromise between
 time to complete maintenance, improvement in filesystem performance,
 and minimum impact on running processes.  Please note that I/O priority
 scheduling requires the use of CFQ, and not noop, deadline,
 anticipatory, or blk-mq.  CFQ is Debian's default block scheduler.

Because stretch+1 is the target there is plenty of time to work on the
five issues I anticipate (one normal, two or three important, and one
minor).  My primary concern is preventing issues like the following:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg55364.html

That "the default values" paragraph in the description probably needs
to be rewritten in light of this, at least until this type of issue is
solved, or the package should maybe go in experimental.

Sincerely,
Nicholas
