Hi, what is the status of getting libjitsi into Debian?

I'm not aware of anybody working on it and there are no contributions
or volunteers of doing it. We will do it at some point, but we do not
have resources currently.

Oh, that was sad to hear.

Where is the code and debian packaging used to upload the last upload,
and what was the message from the ftpmasters when it was rejected?  Is
there a git repo somewhere with the Debian packaging available?  Without
those key pieces of information, it will be impossible for volunteers to
provide help.

We always tried to keep all the packaging in one place, the code of
the project. You can find everything in
https://github.com/jitsi/libjitsi. The problem for rejection was the
api used in jsip and its license, I know Ingo and Daniel Pocock had
done some work in that direction, but nothing is finished. Also there
were a lot of changes since the last submission, like license changed
from lgpl to apache, and there were few libraries that we created from
libjitsi code (the lgpl dependencies) and some new were added. Also
the project was mavenized. A lot of changes, which suppose a lot of
work.

The debian folder is here:
https://github.com/jitsi/libjitsi/tree/master/resources/install, but
everything is build using the ant in the main folder. Some of the docs
maybe outdated due to the changes I've described previously.

The licensing issues of jsip have been solved since.
