Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

The statdataml package was last uploaded by the then-maintainer in November
of 2004 --- almost two years ago.  There have been a few minor upstream
releases that have not been packaged by the QA group (which is normal).

The package should be withdrawn. It has essentially no users, and for its
main purpose (of data exchange between Octave and R), easier solutions exists
(as eg the Octave data readers for R in the r-cran-foreign package).

Popcon (at http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?popcon=statdataml ) shows less
than 0.5% of users have it installed, and nobody seems to have used it.
