Hi Adam
Please let us know if you intend maintaining the freecad package going
forward.
Teemu and Anton will no longer be maintaining it (see below), so if you
won't be maintaining it, I agree with Sébastien that orphaning the
package would better match reality.
Regards
Graham

two of its maintainers (me and Teemu) decided not to maintain
this package any more. Adam, which is currently the only
one in "Uploaders"-field seems to be not active for a long time.
I am not orphaning the package because it is team-maintained.
But it would be good if somebody could take over the package.
IMO, it's better to orphan the package, to make it clear that it has no active
maintainer. Otherwise that critical piece of information may go unnoticed for a
long time by third parties, including potentially interested maintainers. And
this doesn't prevent the future maintainer from keeping it in Debian Science.
Best,
