Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: mgt@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:mgt

This package hasn't had an upstream release since 1996, so may be
long past its usefulness.

I intend to orphan the mgt package.

The package description is:
 Mgt allows the user to examine Go game tree files in the SmartGo format.
 Mgt also has basic Go game tree editing capabilities and may be used
 to create or edit game tree files.
 .
 Mailgo is a utility which manages E-mail Go games using mgt as the Go
 board editor.  It is included in the mgt package.

Very valid point.  I have filed a removal request (#1079001) and hereby close 
this orphan request.
