Hi Andreas, thanks for helping with the tf package! I saw that you not only created the salsa repo, but also fixed #1066561. That's great!
TL;DR: Feel free to move this package to the Debian Games team. The reason I never found enough motivation to do it myself was that I no longer actively use tf and, more importantly, didn't see any sign that there are still any active users. As there was no upstream release since I started maintaining the debian package more than 20 years ago, I wonder if this is still a useful package to have. So my next step would have been to remove the package from Debian entirely. The reason I didn't already do that probably is mainly nostalgia :-) If you think that tf can be properly maintained by the Debian Games team: Even better! I still think text-based MUDs are a great game genre, and if tf is still compatible to current servers, I'd love to see tf continue to be available in Debian. Thank you! Jan
