One of the tasks that Debian Jr. is taking on is to periodically review WNPP for packages that might be of interest to us. I think in the process we are going to find things that would have been interesting, but for one reason or another are not desirable to package. We will also, no doubt, find things that are desirable to package, were ITP'd with good intentions, but the person who ITP'd them never followed through. I hope that for the former we'll be able to speed the bug along to closure, and for the latter we will be able to find volunteers within our workgroup to take over the ITP.
