Justification: Grab attention of maintainer

Dear Rhonda,
I suggest removing slrnface from Debian for the following reasons:
* It accumulated one RC-bug:
+ #1115212 slrnface: FTBFS with glibc 2.42 due to removal of obsolete termio
interface
* It seems dead upstream so we need to fix it in Debian
* There are very few votes in popcon
https://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=slrnface&show_installed=on&show_vote=on&want_legend=on&want_ticks=on&from_date=&to_date=&hlght_date=&date_fmt=%25Y-%25m&beenhere=1
* There seems to be no active maintainer
This bug serves as a pre-removal warning. After one month, the bug will be
reassigned to ftp.debian.org to actually request removal of the package.
In case the package should be kept in unstable, please evaluate the
RC-bugs listed above.
* If the bug no longer applies, please close it. If it is closed, check
whether the fixed version is correct and adjust if necessary.
* Is the bug really release-critical? If not, please downgrade.
* If the bug still applies, please send a status update at least once a year.
Once the mentioned RC bugs has been acted upon in one way or another,
please close this bug.
In case the package should be removed from unstable, you may reassign this
bug report:
Control: severity -1 normal
Control: retitle -1 RM: slrnface -- RoM; rc-buggy, dead upstream
Control: reassign -1 ftp.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:slrnface
Alternatively, you may wait a month and have it reassigned.
In case you disagree with the above, please add a wontfix tag to this bug.
Control: tags -1 + wontfix
Doing so will also prevent reassignment.
This package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[1] initiative, which
aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through
the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating
packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to help newcomers become familiar
with a consistent Git-based workflow.
Kind regards
Andreas.

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
slrnface | 2.1.1-7 | source
slrnface | 2.1.1-7+b2 | amd64, armhf, i386, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x
slrnface | 2.1.1-7+b3 | arm64
------------------- Reason -------------------
RoM; rc-buggy, dead upstream
----------------------------------------------
Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it). Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall run at the earliest.
Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.
We try to close bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they were closed
correctly or should have been re-assigned to another package.
Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed. If you
have further comments please address them to [email protected].

a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
