In particular, the mailman package needs some serious love, which its
current maintainers are not giving it. If nobody steps up, etch will
be late or without mailman. (That is not mathematically guaranteed,
but I - the only currently active Mailman-in-Debian maintainer - doubt
I will make it by the freeze deadline of 18 Oct 2006.)
Do not be fooled by the long list at
http://alioth.debian.org/project/memberlist.php?group_id=30291:
- The lead/main maintainer hasn't done anything in Debian for this
package since May 2005, although he is definitely not MIA; maybe he
is too busy on the Ubuntu side (where he does make occasional
updates), maybe too busy with other things in his life. I dunno.
- All sidekicks but one have announced they will not (lack of time,
...) do anything for Mailman-in-Debian at the many-months scale of
time and haven't reversed this announcement.
- Past facts show that the only remaining active sideckick (that
would be me) is patently unable (time-wise and/or motivation-wise)
to maintain the package on his own. In particular, he hasn't even
read the **** *title* of every bug report yet. Hasn't touched the
thing since April 2006.
If on the date of 1st October 2006, nothing has changed, I'm going to
ask for removal of mailman from etch. The package is not release
quality. If you want mailman to be in etch, step up! (Persons that
have sent helpful patches in the past, filed several bugs reports, etc
are particularly invited, as they seem to be caring for the package at
least somewhat.)
Get yourself an account on Alioth, I'll add you to the pkg-mailman
project and sponsor your uploads if you are not a DD.
Contact me with any question / proposition.
Thank you in advance and best regards,

I'm closing this bug since we responded at least 5 people to the RFH and
a new version has been uploaded already.
