   Good day Michael, Job, Damyan, and the Debian games team,

   I think we may have a person or two familiar with Debian. I will
   bring this up with the community and see if we're can find someone
   interested in doing this.

   I know this has come up before, and we weren't sure how to proceed,
   so I think we should be able to.




           I have taken the liberty to upgrade the package (locally) from
           0.9.8-1.2 to 0.9.16.1 and started a salsa project to track the
           changes. The result is at
           <https://salsa.debian.org/dmn/endless-sky>.
           It is not 100% ready yet, but looks quite nice. At this
           point I wonder
           how to proceed.




           Michael, would you like a co-maintainer for the Debian package?
           Perhaps even a group-maintenance under the Debian Games Team
           (cc-ed)?
           Either should help timely upgrades in Debian.




           Thanks for the great additions to the storyline :)


Yes!

I believe that I previously offered to mentor/sponsor since this game has been quite popular in my household. (Thanks for all the great work on it!) That offer is still open. I haven't tried building, but that packaging looks pretty solid at first glance. If you opt to go under the Games Team umbrella, I will be happy to help mentor/sponsor, as needed.
