  Description     : 1.0 alpha version of Doxia from codehaus

Doxia from Codehaus moved to Apache about six years ago. I happen to have
run into a reverse dependency that needs classes from the org.codehaus path,
still.

I'll upload to pkg-java's SVN repository at /trunk/doxia/1.0 but hope
for some additional insights prior to uploading.

Then you need to fix the code in question to use the current version and
not introduce a six year old piece of unmaintained code!

We already have way too many outdated Java classes maintained by pkg-java,
which we needed for an initial upload and which were more or less abandoned
later on.

Chers,
        Moritz

Hi,

A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging doxia-1.0. Unfortunately,
it seems that it did not happen. In Debian, we try not to keep ITP bugs open
for a too long time, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to
refrain from packaging the software.

This is an automatic email to change the status of doxia-1.0 from ITP
(Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen
any activity during the last 12 months.

If you are still interested in packaging doxia-1.0, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

 thanks

It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to
time, by mailing <720876@bugs.debian.org>.  If you need guidance on how to
package this software, please reply to this email, and/or contact the
debian-mentors@lists.debian.org mailing list.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
