Actually, there was. I lacked the time and tools to do so when I posted my emails, which is why I asked rather than checking. I would love to see cinnamon actively maintained in Debian and I'm glad there's interested in doing so. I just wanted to make sure that those involved were aware of the process for taking over a package, so there wasn't unnecessary hostility or other problems. So far, nobody replying to my messages has indicated that they are aware of the procedure, and intend to follow it. > You will see that before the commits made by Maxy and me there are > also the commits made by the previous maintainer.

I'm personally a big fan of collab-maint and would suggest that when the MIA situation is resolved, if you wanted to keep it in collab-maint I don't see why you should move it again, personally. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
