If the upstream is inactive then you become, rightly or wrongly, the default upstream. If you cannot or don't want to be that, then don't package the program. I package a fair few things, but I'm also upstream for some of them too. That is mainly because upstream was unresponsive or had moved on to other projects. - Craig -- Craig Small VK2XLZ GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.enc.com.au/ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIEEE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian developer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
