Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the yowsup package.

Yowsup is a very good WhatsApp client implementation. However, the constant
changes in protocol makes a bit hard to maintain this package (specially in
Debian stable). The dependencies aren't updated and it is impeditive to
release a new Debian revision.

I don't think that Yowsup must be removed from Debian. I suggest to wait a
more stable version of WhatsApp protocol. I believe that it will occur in
a medium time (one or two years).

The package description is:
 WhatsApp Messenger is a cross-platform mobile messaging app
 which allows you to exchange messages, via Internet, without
 having to pay for SMS, using a mobile phone.
 .
 In addition to basic messaging, WhatsApp users can create
 groups, send each other unlimited images, video and audio
 media messages.
 .
 Yowsup is a cross platform Python library that enable to do all
 the previous in your own app. Yowsup allows you to login and use
 the WhatsApp service, providing all capabilities of an official
 WhatsApp client, allowing to create a full-fledged custom
 WhatsApp client.
 .
 python-yowsup has these features:
    - Registration.
    - Text send/receive.
    - Encryption of messages.
    - Media send/receive (images, videos, audio, location,
      contact cards).
    - Groups(create, leave, join, update picture, updating
      subject).
    - Fetch user profile picture.
    - Fetch user status.
    - Set profile picture.
    - Set group icon.
    - Set status and others.
  .
  The package yowsup-cli is a good example of the python-yowsup
  implementation.
