I request an adopter for the gnucash package in Debian.

The package description is:
 Gnucash can track finances in multiple accounts, keeping running
 and reconciled balances. It has an X based graphical user interface,
 double entry, a hierarchy of accounts, expense accounts (categories),
 and can import Quicken QIF files and OFX files.

Reason:
 Due to some real life changes I don't need to do any financial
 accounting anymore at a level that is offered by Gnucash. This means
 that I am no longer an active user of Gnucash, which made me feel
 more and more annoyed to maintain Gnucash, which is a pity.

State of the package:
 Since I took over responsibility for Gnucash back in 2009, I worked
 hard to get the packaging in a maintainable state by leveraging the
 power of Debhelper using 'dh' style debian/rules file. Next I started
 to get the number of bugs down. A lot of old bugs are still hanging
 around in the BTS, some of them without being triaged yet. At least
 I managed to stop the rising trend of the bug count, but with yet
 73 open bugs there is still some work ahead...

Upstream state:
 In the recent years the upstream developers released several new
 versions, all with substantial bug fixes and other improvements that
 prove that the project healthy and alive. It has always been a
 pleasure to communicate with them. Bugfixes have always been welcome.

If you are interested in adopting maintenance for the gnucash package,
please drop me a line. I will then happily help you to get familiar with
the package and to get in touch with the friendly upstream developers. I
will stay around for a while and will help where needed, but I
definitely intend to hand the maintenance of the gnucash package over to
someone else.

Best Regards,
Micha
