Hi,

A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging fonts-autonym. 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 fonts-autonym 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 fonts-autonym, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

 retitle 729859 ITP: fonts-autonym -- A font that can render all language autonyms
 owner 729859 !
 thanks

It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to
time, by mailing <729859@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,

This font is unmaintained. Also, there is not any building instructions
for the glyph file.
