Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hi,
The live-build package was previously maintained by Daniel Baumann, who has retired from the Debian Project. There has not yet been anyone come forward as a new technical lead for the package, and as per Debian Policy ยง5.6.3, the package was orphaned when Daniel removed himself from the Uploaders field. I have performed an upload that converts this package to a native package and includes any already committed changes. I have also updated the Homepage and Vcs-* urls for the package. (I'm aware the Homepage field doesn't currently go anywhere, these pages are a work-in-progress as they used to be on Daniel's server, which has now been shut down). This is a native package to Debian, not a package of upstream sources, and so this package will take more time and effort to maintain than other packages in Debian. Please be aware of this before taking responsibility for it. If you want to be the new maintainer, please see http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed instructions how to adopt a package properly. The Debian Live team is very happy for development to continue within the team, we just do not currently have anyone with enough time available to look after this package and maintain its quality to a high standard. If you'd like to speak to the team, please contact debian-l...@lists.debian.org or join #debian-live on irc.debian.org. Thanks, Iain.
