Hi;

The salvage team largely operates by QAing packages highlighted by BOTD
  http://blends.debian.net/botd/botd.html
which means ones with non-wontfix bugs & not uploaded by maintainer for 5 years
& Standards-Version < 4 & no/invalid VCS.

This has a high hit-rate, and I've noticed that many of these packages'
maintainers only maintain one package. Thus, I'm evaluating
the ~1000 single-package maintainers' packages under the same lens
(the hit-rate is much lower and my query is not good).

Yesterday I got to Yann Amar <quid...@poivron.org>,
who maintains src:bilibop.

tracker.d.o shows a history of very regular uploads,
both big and small, from 2013-09-21 up to 0.6.3 @ 2021-02-09.

https://bugs.debian.org/src:bilibop lists, chronologically:
 #983396  2021-02 bilibop: [INTL:pt_BR] Brazilian Portuguese debconf templates 
translation
 #995691  2021-10 [INTL:sv] Swedish strings for bilibop debconf
 #1002939 2022-01 bilibop: [INTL:it] Italian translation of debconf messages
 #1025592 2022-12 bilibop-rules: suggests transitional policykit-1 package
 #1059552 2023-12 bilibop: isolation-machine autopkgtest (lockfs) fails on 
bookworm and newer

The last commit in the VCS
  https://un.poivron.org/~quidame/git/bilibop.git/
from 2021-03-08 is d/changelog for 0.6.4 with #983396 applied.
This matches the last-modified date on
  https://un.poivron.org/~quidame/git/
and is the latest out of all repositories there.

The homepage/wiki all has last-updated dates from juin 2013.
I don't see any other posts under this name on lists.d.o.
contact/ says quidame on OFTC, and that user doesn't seem to be online.
I haven't linked this user to any other on-line medium.

I'd characterise this behaviour as highly uncharacteristic and worrying
(I may just be primed after
   https://github.com/cybernoid/archivemount/issues/29
 but early 2021 is not much different to excess deaths from late 2020 :/).

Has anyone seen Yann Amar?
