Package: wnpp Severity: normal I took over the sudo package in August of 1996, and have maintained it since then. The package is in pretty good condition, with very reliable core functionality. Upstream is active and responds promptly to concerns. Despite this, there are a significant number of bugs open against the package, a fair number of which are related to the LDAP interface or other features I don't use, and just don't have the time, facilities, and/or motivation to work on.
So, I think that after nearly a quarter century taking care of sudo in Debian, it's time someone else took over the package. Because this package is more or less "essential" to many users despite being marked as 'optional' in our packaging system, I'd like to suggest anyone considering taking it on look over the package, review the open bug list, and then reach out to me for some conversation before making a committment to take it over.
