So I think it is to blitz maintainer to decide whether he wants to join pkg-scicomp of debian-science as both seems to be relevant. I understand from your message pkg-scicomp is not designed to gather more general scientific software outside the scope you gave above. blitz in this case was both in the pkg-scicomp and debian-science scope (the latter one being broader). > | questions.
