Hello Debian Haskell team, I'm looking for a sponsor for my adoption of propellor, a configuration management system written in Haskell. It was orphaned when the upstream author, Joey Hess, left Debian. I have his blessing to adopt it.
I'd hate to see propellor drop out of Debian because it doesn't have a maintainer. So I'd appreciate it if someone could take a look at sponsoring my upload. It's lintian-clean and up-to-date, unlike the current version in sid. The RFS is below, with a dget download link. Alternatively, check out tag "debian/2.15.0-1" of my repo https://git.spwhitton.name/propellor Thanks.

Each system has a list of idempotent properties, which Propellor ensures are satisfied each time it runs. It uses an innovative and powerful security and distribution model using Git and PGP. I am looking for a sponsor for my adoption of the Debian packaging of Propellor. It was orphaned when the upstream author, former DD Joey Hess, left Debian. I contribute patches to Propellor, so I understand how it works and am well-placed to maintain its Debian package. I've checked with Joey and he is happy for me to be the Debian package maintainer. * Package name : propellor Version : 2.15.0-1 Upstream Author : Joey Hess <[email protected]> * URL : https://propellor.branchable.com/ * License : BSD-2-clause Section : admin To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/propellor Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/propellor/propellor_2.15.0-1.dsc Thanks.
