Greet Thanks.
I see xml-core has been moved out. It was actively maintained when Ardo was around. Can you do the same for all co-maintained package using this address. https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=debian-sgml%40lists.debian.org * debiandoc-sgml popcon=200 (git-buildpackage used to use this but now moved to use docbook2x) * debiandoc-sgml-doc * debiandoc-sgml-doc-pt-br * sgml-data popcon=118885 (Yes, I have been baby-sitting these after Ardo has been out-of-reach.) Another zombe group is Debian XML/SGML Group https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=debian-xml-sgml-pkgs%40lists.alioth.debian.org Notable and high-popcon packages are * libxml2 popcon=60283 * libxslt popcon=207556 * docbook2x popcon=283 but git-buildpackage build-depends on this. Martin, what do you think? * docbook-dsssl popcon=2435 (less important now) These may be better to be maintained in debian/ in salsa. Co-maintained for these packages may be not correct. Almost orphaned but stable and functioning is the state of these packages. Keeping them on more accessible section may be good idea..... I guess we need to make extra upload when site URL changed. Or will there be some redirect from old git URL to new URL?
