Hi again, I see
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/zephyr in a releasable state. I wonder whether you intend to do some changes or whether you are OK if I do a team upload. For the moment was running $ tagpending tagpending info: tagging these bugs pending: 1101738 1030080 1029195 1049994 759885 1098197 1039433 and I'll wait for your confirmation another week. Kind regards Andreas.
