Subject: RFS: wayfire/0.9.0-5 [ITA] -- 3D Wayland compositor

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "wayfire":

 * Package name     : wayfire
   Version          : 0.9.0-5
   Upstream contact : Ilia Bozhinov <amme...@gmail.com>
 * URL              : https://wayfire.org/
 * License          : HPND, Expat
 * Vcs              : https://salsa.debian.org/debian/wayfire
   Section          : x11

In short, it is one of the wlroots-based wayland compositor.

Specially, cause wayfire depends on wlroots 0.17 thus it will cause
problem to the migration of wlroots, sway, labwc and other packages
depending on wlroots.

I made this workaround release (based on upstream unreleased branch) to
build on 0.18 and make migration of wlroots and related packages
possible.

And I will maintain this package in the future.

Temporarily, the Vcs is in my salsa:
https://salsa.debian.org/EiPiFun/wayfire
After the ITA, I will push the changes into debian/wayfire

As the pipelines showed, this package could pass autopkgtest.
https://salsa.debian.org/EiPiFun/wayfire/-/pipelines/782534
