That's great - Timo has also been a maintainer and he informed me he is dropping out too so you can remove both of our names from Uploaders Andy Hawkins is one of the upstream developers, he is not a DD but he has guest access on alioth and in the repository Please also get in touch with #debian-release and mention the RC bug, they may need some help getting that resolved for jessie. I'm happy to continue maintaining the flactag package for now, Andy is also upstream for that, it uses libmusicbrainz5 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
