Re: acpid package needs love and an active maintainer

Hello Raphael,

Unfortunately I had some personal problems that I was not best to keep
this package.
I agree with you, if I can not keep then not caught. I am putting the
package up for adoption.
In respect of other packages I will be updating them.

Regards,
Jose Carlos

 Hello,

 I just reassigned a bug to acpid and discovered how badly maintained it
 is. Despite a new maintainer in january this year, the BTS still shows
 many RC bugs and a bunch with patches.

 Hopefully this mail will draw some attention to the problem and some
 volunteers will step up to help maintain this package.

 Jose, I see you have many other packages. Please don't pick up important
 packages if you don't have the time or the motivation to bring them back
 in a good shape. And if you see that you don't cope, please look for help
 and/or orphan some of your packages (I see several with new upstream
 versions and quite a few that were NMUed, probably due to lack of action
 on your part).

I'd be interested in this package as I have some issues with acpi
anyway. I won't be able to look into this before next week though. If
anyone else's interested I'd happily be part of a team.

Good.

I'm already working on acpid fixing its bugs.

Before Jose Carlos sent his response to the list, I wrote to him
about taking care of acpid and he replied saying me to go ahead and
do it.
