Hello,
it's been a long time since I have been able to send out the last issue of
"Misc devel news". I would like all developers to (regularly) make the
effort to share some words about the cool stuff they are doing or are
planning to do so that we can have something at least twice a month or so.

I don't see why you reassign it back to the ntp package. I'm not sure
what you think has changed that it should be reassigned. I'm also not
sure why it got cloned in the first place.

I guess you did not read the message in the reassign email then:
