I suspect it's likely a misunderstanding - without notification, all anyone from Proxy Maint sees is proxy-maint being removed. An E-Mail to proxy-maint@g.o explaining that you've spoken to and are taking over proxying of the package would make sure we know what's happening. -- Sam Jorna (wraeth) GnuPG Key: D6180C26
