Can we put SSSD up for adoption? Despite the call for help last month, it looks like progress has continued to be stalled on this package. And considering it's security-relevant, that's not a very good position to be in long-term.
I can help with some minor issues, but I don't have the experience with package maintenance to take ownership of something this important.
