As time goes by, the DL framework is more and more likely an educational code base. It's architecture and design is old, compared to PyTorch or TensorFlow 2.0. The last time I use caffe for neural network training is several months ago on a toy dataset, and don't plan to use it anymore. Based on that, I'll be no longer the right maintainer for caffe and caffe-contrib for the post-Buster period. It would be better if someone is willing to take it over in the future -- so I can put more time on some more important packages, and new frameworks. Currently this bug is an RFA for both src:caffe and src:caffe-contrib. After the Buster release, the status of src:caffe will still be RFA, but the status of src:caffe-contrib will become Orphan. I've totally lost my interest in packaging CUDA compiler products. To adopt Caffe, please also make sure to review upstream's installation guide for Debian (I wrote that) and keep it up-to-date as long as possible.
