Hello, As I wrote earlier on debian-devel [1] I have a few reports [2] about DM upload permissions. According to the announcement [3] the permissions "only via DMUA=yes" will be revoked on 24th of November 2012, and that date is coming near now.
[1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/09/msg00645.html [2] http://qa.debian.org/~bartm/dm-permissions/ [3] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2012/09/msg00008.html At this point 135 DMs would loose their DM upload permissions for 774 packages. That is more than I expected. So it is possible that we'll get an increase of sponsorship requests and DM upload permissions renewal requests on debian-mentors after 24th of November 2012. (That's why I send this to debian-mentors now.) A random example of an active DM is Jaromír Mikeš, with a recent upload of package libltc. This situation also reveals unmaintained packages that should be marked as orphaned. (That's why I send this to debian-qa now.) A random example of a package that looks pretty unmaintained at this point is tinymux.
