OK, sorry for the confusion but I really didn't want to see Aurélien just stop this work which I'm pretty sure he's doing well. For dpkg, I think I've seen some discussion but Guillem Jover and/or Frank Lichtenheld have probably a better picture. Anyway, the dpkg development model is now pretty much opened so anyone with ideas/skills/patches can probably come up and discuss in debian-dpkg... For apt, ahem.....Michael is pretty much alone doing visible development work. Some help here would probably be welcomed....at least from my very far point of view.
