I think that such an important module would benefit from group maintenance, be it the apache or the perl group. I don't think I have all the knowledge to lead it, but I can help. I have used mod_perl a lot, know enough C, and I'm already somewhat familiar with basic perlguts. -- Martín Ferrari

You probably want to hear my input too. :-) At Debconf5, I was more or less persuaded into taking the package (up to the level where I actually had the first maintainer upload ready). I did, however, set a condition that was sort of silly -- that Thom would sign my GPG key. Naturally, we all forgot about it, the key was never signed, I didn't go to DC6 and Thom didn't go to DC7. So, it all sort of faded away, and the package was kept in a sort of limbo where I sort of had the responsibility and sort of not. Not taking clearer action at the time, despite nagging from Thom, is something I'll have to take the blame for. Um, yeah, what he said. I have no interest in maintaining it any more; someone should probably take up the slack. However, at the time of writing I'm in the process of starting to work, so I really cannot take on any new responsibilities until I know how life is going to look like. Thus, I'm afraid I can't take over the package -- perhaps as co-maintainer if you need me (although I'm skeptical of co-maintenance in general), and of course as a user, but nothing else. /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- Andres Salomon [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Because of the general lack of time of the apache maintainers, I would recommend to either give interested people commit rights to the debian-apache repository, or to use a different repository for mod_perl. Lots of NMUs are not really efficient. FTR, I am not interested in mod_perl either. Cheers, Stefan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Gunnar Wolf dijo [Wed, Aug 15, 2007 at 09:32:30PM -0500]: Hi all, (...) I'm sending this mail as an answer to #438168 - A user (understandably) fed up by what seems to be lack of attention to a package that is core to many people's work, libapache2-mod-perl2. I send this mail with some fear, of course, as I do not really want to adopt it - but... Well, the circumstances might be pushing for it ;-) Umh... Ok, it seems I was cornered and got to that awkward position where I have to do it - I'll adopt this package as part of the pkg-perl group's packages. Some people from the Apache group offered to adopt it allowing pkg-perl members commit access to the repository, but they are not active users of the package - And at least Martín Ferrari and myself, from the pkg-perl crowd, are. Perl guys: Cheer up. We have several new bugs under umbrella to work on! I'll jut inject the package now, and by tomorrow I expect to start working a bit on getting it up to speed.
