Colin updated the package as part of his bug sweep of the hamradio packages
and did not want to be doing ongoing maintainence of the package. Hamish is
currently too busy to be too involved with the team and said he was happy to
be removed from the Uploaders fields until he is able to have time to
return.

I will attempt to contact the others, which have been added back for now,
although none responded to the bug on the package requesting an update to
the latest upstream version.

Lots of fun was had and now the d/copyright file is DEP-5 compliant and
ready for ftpmaster level scrutiny.

The new package has been uploaded to mentors.d.o:

  http://mentors.debian.net/package/xastir

Thanks,
Iain.

Here's a quick review of your package:

Were the uploaders that you removed from d/control asked to be removed
by the MIA team, or declare publicly (e.g. on a bug or mailing list)
that they wish to be removed? If not, please don't unilaterally remove
people from uploaders; go through the MIA process [1] and have the MIA
team ensure that the uploaders in question are indeed inactive before
removing them.

A number of issues with debian/copyright:
- GPL version not specified
- copyright owners+dates not specified
- "2) Some of the programs in the scripts directory may contain other
licensing information.  See the individual files for details."
wouldn't pass ftpmaster scrutiny

You may want to consider updating d/copyright to use DEP-5 while
you're fixing the above issues.

Regards,
Vincent
