  Subj: Bug#1119966: tk2: Should tk2 be removed   
 XPost: linux.debian.bugs.dist 
 From: tille@debian.org 
  
 Source: tk2 
 Version: 1.1-10.1 
 Severity: important 
 X-Debbugs-Cc: 990595@bugs.debian.org, Debian Hamradio Maintainers 
 , Package Salvaging Team , Andreas Bombe , A. Maitland Bottoms 
 , Christoph Berg , Petter Reinholdtsen , Alex Myczko 
 tar@debian.org> 
  
 Dear Hamradio maintainers, 
  
 [I've added some random human maintainers from the team in CC 
  to get educated comments to this bug report.] 
  
 I suggest removing tk2 from Debian for the following reasons: 
  
  * No human maintainer in Debian (see bug #990595) 
  * Unmaintained upstream 
    (upstream homepage doesn't even have a valid certificate) 
  
 This bug serves as a pre-removal warning. After one month, the bug will be 
 reassigned to ftp.debian.org to actually request removal of the package. 
  
 In case the package should be kept in unstable just tell me and 
 I volunteer to migrate the package to Salsa in Hamradio team. 
  
 In case the package should be removed from unstable, you may reassign this 
 bug report: 
  
     Control: severity -1 normal 
     Control: retitle -1 RM: tk2 -- RoM; unmaintained upstream and in Debian 
     Control: reassign -1 ftp.debian.org 
     Control: affects -1 + src:tk2 
  
 Alternatively, you may wait a month and have it reassigned. 
  
 In case you disagree with the above, please add a wontfix tag to this bug. 
  
     Control: tags -1 + wontfix 
  
 This package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[1] initiative, which 
 aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through 
 the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating 
 packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to help newcomers become familiar 
 with a consistent Git-based workflow. 
  
  
 Kind regards 
    Andreas.
