Hi Kamal,

I remember you was very collaborative when migrating duff to Salsa (see
bug #1078471).  I would like to migrate hershey-fonts to Salsa as well
to provide contributors an easy way to work on this package.  I noticed
some URIs with http instead of https and other packaging things that
could be updated.  I think Debian Fonts team would be a natural place to
maintain this package and I would happily volunteer to do the migration
and do some team upload.

What do you think?

Kind regards
   Andreas.

Hi Andreas.   Yes please, I'd be happy to turn this old-but-still-useful
package over to the Debian Fonts team.

Thanks in advance for migrating!

I've just uploaded what you can find in

Kind regards
