The package creator does get notice of their package being removed, which encourages them to do an update and put in a bit more effort to find a sponsor or review. > Sometimes sponsoring just takes a while. Sponsoring will always take a long time, as there will always be more free software available outside Debian and people willing to package it than Debian members willing to put in the effort needed to review it. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
