Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: normal Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for the package "allegro4.4", that Andreas Rönnquist <gus...@gusnan.se> and myself want to adopt. allegro4.2 is orphaned and to be replaced by this package. This involves a transition and the Release Team gave their ok for an upload to unstable (transition bug: [1]). We want to maintain the package with the Games Team, but since we are running short of sponsors in the team, we also ask here for a sponsor to get the package uploaded in time before the freeze. See also: - discussion on debian-devel-games [2] - ITP bug [3] - allegro4.2 O bug [4] If you want to sponsor the package, please enter your name in the table on [5].
