Package: wnpp Severity: normal I plan to request removal of bitpim unless somebody cares enough about the package to take it over within the next few weeks. (If and when it is removed, resurrection will be possible, just require going through NEW again.)
The package description is BitPim allows you to view and manipulate data on many phones from LG, Samsung, Sanyo, and other manufacturers that use Qualcomm CDMA chips. Depending on your phone model, you may be able to access the phone book, the calendar, wallpapers, ring tones, and the filesystem. The package is technically in okay shape. However, the rise of smart phones has rendered it more or less obsolete. In particular, there have been no upstream releases, or even commits, in years, and https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=bitpim reports that only about 0.01% of users have used the package recently. (Also, it will remain part of jessie, just not be in the next stable release.) Any takers, or should I go ahead and request removal?
