Perhaps this caused some confusion. Sorry if the silence I noticed was caused by technical problems. On the other hand I did not found any response to any of your curator related bug reports in the BTS. If I look at jhead (an other package of you) I see some responses from more than one year ago but the bugs stay unclosed. This is normally a sign for beeing MIA - which is no shame at all. I just wanted to help. > Go ahead and orphan the packages if you wish. I do not want to orphan any package of an other developer. This would be your job. It would be nice if you would close the bugs which where fixed in my last NMU. Kind regards Andreas. -- Sie schaffen eine Wüste und nennen es Frieden. -- Publius Cornelius Tacitus (55-120)

Active-but-busy developers would rightly take exception to being called missing-in-action; I don't think the term should be thrown around too lightly. Cheers, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is true, but it is also true that there is no shame in orphaning some of your packages if you're too busy to maintain them properly. Cheers, -- Emanuele Rocca - 1024D/EAF19B60

You might search the archive of debian-qa and debian-python for my "wanting to help" mails for curator. Kind regards Andreas.
