Thank you so much for caring & offering, and apologies for leaving this
bitrot and the hardship that this is causing you with regards to
the python-geoip2 migration :( 2020 has been... an interesting year.
python-maxminddb (and other parts of its ecosystem, like libmaxminddb &
geoipupdate) are under the "Debian" salsa group (ex-collab-maint). As a
Debian developer, you should have access to contribute already, with no
expectations for no-precommit coordination with myself required :)
Would you mind starting there? Besides commits, feel free to also make
archive uploads, as well to add yourself to Uploaders :) I'd like to
stay involved for the time being; we can revisit if my absence from
packaging extends into 2021. Also more than happy to work together,
idea/code review or answer questions etc.
Best,
Faidon
