-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi Team
I'm writing here first before I file a formal RFH or O in the hope that someone in the team might have the capacity to take up the mantle of maintaining Jenkins in Debian. I've found myself with increasingly less time to spend on Jenkins; my day-job has changed focus quite a bit in the last 18 months so in-hours time on Jenkins is limited (if non-existent) and with a growing family, I've not much time other than that right now. Which reading that back is pretty much 0 time. I'm also concerned about where Jenkins could be realistically maintained in a stable Debian; Upstream move fast (LTS release every 3 months) and I've found that unless you understand the inside of Kohsuke's mind, trying to backport to older releases is extremely time consuming/if not impossible. I'm also not sure how useful the packages are; alot of sites I would expect to use the Debian package don't - jenkins.debian.org for example. Can't really blame people - its different to upstreams packaging in terms of how its built and what it ships with. With these three things in mind, I'm considering orphaning the package and requesting its removal from both Debian and Ubuntu.
