• Lost sponsor & autoremoval

    From =?UTF-8?Q?G=C3=A1bor_N=C3=A9meth?=@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jul 17 09:50:01 2023
    Dear mentors,

    I'm the maintainer of msc-generator [1] currently in the repos but filed
    for autoremoval due to the GCC version bump [2]. The fix is trivial and
    I believe I have a packageable version on a branch we used for debian
    uploads earlier [3] with my sponsor.

    My earlier sponsor expressed lack of resources earlier this year so I
    contacted another person who first responded but now I cannot reach for
    a month+. So basically I think I'm now looking for a new sponsor. I
    don't think I can file a new RFS so that my package is in the repos
    already.

    I'd be grateful if someone could take a look and help upload the new
    version before end of July and the autoremoval deadline.

    Thanks,
    Gábor Németh

    By all means, you can file a RFS for anything, there is no such rule
    that RFS are only for new packages (in fact, if you look at the
    template, there is a difference regarding new packages, regular updates, critical updates in the Severity of the RFS, in your case it would be sev:important as you are fixing an RC bug).

    I'd be grateful if someone could take a look and help upload the new
    version before end of July and the autoremoval deadline.

    That said, I don't have time myself right now, sorry.
