I'm interested in maintaining this package. From what I've investigated, |
| 9 |
other major distributions don't apply any similar patches which means |
| 10 |
that we are likely to stop carrying most (or even all) of the current |
| 11 |
patches. |

As this it obviously a high profile package with lots of reverse |
| 13 |
dependencies it would be good to have another developer or a project |
| 14 |
(such as base-system) co-maintaining to ensure that the package is |
| 15 |
properly taken care of at all times. |
