I intend to orphan the python-ttystatus package. (Already uploaded
with Maintainer set to QA.)

The package description is:
 ttystatus is a Python library for showing progress reporting and status
 updates on terminals, for (Unix) command line programs. Output is
 automatically adapted to the width of the terminal: truncated if it does
 not fit, and re-sized if the terminal size changes.
 .
 Output is provided via widgets. Each widgets formats some data into
 a suitable form for output. It gets the data either via its initializer,
 or from key/value pairs maintained by the master object. The values are
 set by the user. Every time a value is updated, widgets get updated
 (although the terminal is only updated every so often to give user time
 to actually read the output).
 .
 The output from ttystatus goes to the terminal (`/dev/tty`) and is
 restricted to a single line.

Dear Ricardo,

How is your effort to adopt python-ttystatus coming along?  I noticed
an empty git repository on
<URL: https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/python-ttystatus >
as I was looking at orphaned packages without version control system
backing to convert to git, and decided to not move any further without your input.

I would be happy to import all previously uploaded packages into a git
repository if that could help you.

Hi Petter!

Thanks for reaching out. It's a team repository so feel free to take it.
I don't have time to do it and when I was looking into it I saw that
upstream has abandoned the project, so I'm not sure how to deal with
this. IMHO it should probably be removed from Debian.


Thanks!
-	Ricardo.

My current project is converting all orphaned packages without a version
control system to git on salsa under the Debian group.  I am not
considering removal nor other teams maintenance.  I got a streamlined
process to create a git repo (it is already created on my laptop. :),
but do not want to spend time on considering longer term maintenance.
Thus left to myself and without the ITA, I would create
<URL: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/python-ttystatus > and leave it to
someone else to decide what to do next.  The ITA made me leave the
package alone, but thought I could at least offer the git repository in
case you had run into problems creating such repository.
