Varun Hiremath has not been working on the dvipng package for quite some time. We are tracking their status in the MIA team and would like to ask you to remove them from the Uploaders list of the package so we can close that part of the file.

(If the person is listed as Maintainer, what we are asking is to please step in as a new maintainer.)

On behalf of the MIA team
Paul
