Hi Frank,

the Debian Perl Team maintained libparse-debianchangelog-perl for
quite some years now using debian-specific patches against your
upstream version 1.2.0 from http://www.djpig.de/software/.

Being sick of doing upstream work in form of debian-specific patches,
the Debian Perl Team is currently trying to get rid of
libparse-debianchangelog-perl completely (see
https://bugs.debian.org/933128) which again requires changes in quite
some other packages including prominent ones like lintian,
dh-make-perl and aptitude, see
https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/bts-usertags.cgi?tag=libparse-debian-changelog-perl-removal&user=debian-perl%40lists.debian.org
(aptitude still missing there).

So some of us wonder if you would generally allow Debian Perl Team
members (or maybe even someone else) to also officially take over the
upstream development of Parse::DebianChangelog — as you seem to have
done for the packaging back in 2015.

                Regards, Axel
