Hi, Danielly! How are you?
I saw that you opened an RFS for this package, and I would like to know whether you intend to continue with the packaging process.
I recently opened an ITP for the same package (#1144969) and have also started working on packaging it for Debian.
Since I noticed that we are both working on the same package, I thought it would be best to get in touch
so we can coordinate our efforts and avoid duplicating work. If you are still interested in maintaining the package,
I would be happy to collaborate and work on it together with you.
On the other hand, if you do not intend to continue with the process, I can proceed with the packaging work I have started.
I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

Hello,

I am updating this sponsorship request following the review and
coordination with Nilson Silva, who filed ITP #1144969 for dz6.

The previous 0.7.0-1 upload should no longer be considered for
sponsorship. A revised 0.7.1-2 package is currently being prepared and
reviewed.

The packaging repository is available on Salsa:

https://salsa.debian.org/danielly/dz6

The changes under review are available in merge request #1:

https://salsa.debian.org/danielly/dz6/-/merge_requests/1

The Rust dependencies were reviewed using debcargo-conf, all build
dependencies are available in Debian unstable, and a clean sbuild build
completed successfully without downloading dependencies from the
Internet.

The changelog remains marked as UNRELEASED while the remaining
maintainer, uploader and Debian Rust Team repository details are being
confirmed.

I will send another update with the final Debian Mentors upload when
the package is ready for sponsorship.

Regards,
Danielly Nunes
