I intend to orphan the cmph package.

The package description is:
 Minimal perfect hash functions are widely used for memory efficient storage
 and fast retrieval of items from static sets, such as words in natural
 languages, reserved words in programming languages or interactive systems,
 universal resource locations (URLs) in Web search engines, or item sets in
 data mining techniques.

Hello,

I would like to commit to being the maintainer of the cmph package.
I am new to Debian, but I understand the very basics of package
maintenance, UNIX-like infrastructure, and C development.
Please let me know what further actions need be taken; I suppose that upon
preliminary approval, I would then have to find a team to sponsor me in
maintaining this package.

Thank you,
Brett Dispoto

Hi Brett,

The Debian Developer's Reference [1] lists the most important workflows
for a contributor.

Teams are good, however if you can't find one (for example, this package
doesn't really scream like a great fit to anything), you can find
mentorship and sponsorship through debian-mentors [2].

Seeing as this package has been RFA'ed (and not orphaned), I'd try to
contact the maintainer directly and see if he would be willing to sponsor.
