Count me in on this team (on salsa & mailing-list). But about moving things, my feelings are mixed. Indeed, this very week, I joined the OCaml Team and packaged src:elpi there -- which is mathematics software. But since it's written in OCaml, I feel it's better to keep it in the language-specific team. For all packages in the debian science team, I'm ok with them moving to the new team. [I have no clue how to move them] Perhaps the debian sagemath team should be merged in the math team? Cheers, J.Puydt
