I personally would not sponsor packages looking like that: $ apt-cache showsrc plplot | grep -e ^Maintainer -e ^Uploader -e ^Vc Maintainer: Andrew Ross <andrewr...@users.sourceforge.net> Vcs-Browser: http://plplot.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/plplot/trunk/debian/ Vcs-Svn: https://plplot.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/plplot/trunk/debian Packages like these should be team maintained and thus Maintainer should be a list (in this case Debian Science Maintainers <debian-science-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> ) and consequently the Vcs URLs should point to the Vcs of the according team. Axel, you missed my talk in Chemnitz where I have given lots of good reasons for this strict principle.
