Dear Maintainer, salut piem, long time no see. 'pyalsaaudio' has seen little love from you in the last 7 years (like all of your other packages). the last upstream version of the package that you uploaded was 0.8.4, in the meantime there has been an NMU upload of 0.10.0 (kudos Matthias Klose), but 0.11.0 has been out for 1½ years (and there has been an open bug about this for almost a year as well) i would like us to face reality, and put the package officially under co-maintainership. while i do not have a direct need myself for this package, it fits well into my "portfolio" (multimedia stuff, python stuff), and i think i have the spare cycles to keep the package in good shape. i hereby suggest to salvage 'pyalsaaudio' by multimedia-team, following the ITS procedure as outlined at [1]. as with other packages that you originally maintained and that i gradually took over (puredata, gem, pdp), i suggest to keep you as co-maintainer, if you want to. the packaging repository would move to <https://salsa.debian.org/multimedia-team/pyalsaaudio>. i'm also CCing the MIA team, as i haven't heard from you in a very long time (and it seems your last contribution to Debian was more than 5 years ago). i do hope your are doing well. mgfsard IOhannes [1] <https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.en.html#package-salvaging>
