Control: tags -1 pending Thanks Hi again,
seems you did not found the time to answer my last mail I've now done a NMU to delayed=15. You can find all changes in https://salsa.debian.org/debian/rarpd Please let me know if I should cancel this upload. In general it would help to clarify your status explicitly whether you want to continue maintaining your packages in Debian or whether these should be orphaned instead. I'd volunteer to actually do these orphaning steps (QA-upload + Orphan bug). Kind regards Andreas.
