Hello,
following the recent discussions in #806617 it has become apparent that
we need a new maintainer for freeradius. Debian still has version
2.2.x when upstream is now on 3.0.x.
Is there anyone interested?
It would be a pity to see freeradius gone from Debian.

Hello,
hdparm is a popular package which has been recently orphaned (see

of debian-installer too. There are multiple reverse dependencies too.
There are 4 RC bugs against it and a new upstream release waiting to be
