Dear Maintainer,


I intend to salvage the package "opus-tools", for the following reasons:

- a new upstream release of "opus-tools" has been available for some
  years:
  - 0.2 (in 2018) [#910261]

- no visible packaging activity for 1942 days
  - the last upload by the current maintainer was 2017-01-23
  - there has been an NMU upload on 2022-02-03 to a serious FTBFS bug
    [#965759], that has gone unacknowledged so far.
  - there are 2 open wishlist bug reports since 2018-04-10
    not a single bug report has seen *any* reaction from the current
    maintainer. neither has [#965759] (which is no longer open, as it
    was closed by the aforementioned NMU]

I'm aware that the maintainer of "opus-tools" does not usually want to make
packaging changes without specific reasons, but I don't think that this
allows for completely ignoring open bug-reports of severity SERIOUS for
more than 1½ year.

I'm happy with co-maintaining the package (although my stance at
maintenance is definitely more aggressive with regard to updating to the
latest and greatest source format, dh-compat and the like).
I would more than welcome maintenance of the package under the
multimedia-team umbrella.


it would be great to hear something from the current maintainer of
"opus-tools".

cheers

Dear maintainer,

I've prepared an NMU for opus-tools (versioned as 0.1.10-2) and
uploaded it to DELAYED/7. Please feel free to tell me if I
should delay it longer.

Regards.
