I request an adopter for the ddccontrol-db package. Upstream lost interest some time ago and for a long time I have entertained the notion of taking over upstream mainenance. However, it has become apparent that I lack sufficient time and interest (I use ddccontrol much less now than I did in the past). The package is currently (almost) bug free and is very easy to maintain. Since upstream is dead, prospective maintainers should consider taking over upstream maintenance as well. In the case of the ddccontrol-db package, I have added quite a few new monitors to the database but have not made a new release. There is still a backlog of 70+ monitors to add to the database, but adding them is not terribly complicated. I am an admin on the sourceforge project and can provide admin access to someone truly interested in taking over. I will also remain available to answer questions regarding the package. Should someone not step forward by the time Lenny is released, I will simply orphan the package. Please check the related bug for ddccontrol, of which upstram ddccontrol-db is a part. The package description is: Database of monitors used by ddccontrol. This is mostly useless without ddccontrol.
