Back then I did not answer your question, because I found it so obvious
that what I had just written to someone else on this same mailinglist
applied to you as well.
I apologize if that was for some reason not obvious. It was not my
intention to ignore you - I just felt somewhat ignored myself.

Sorry, but it is not obvious to me the way you want contributions to
be performed.<br>
Do you want that we "engage in bugtracking", but that is a bit vague
to me.<br>

When I search my email archive for your name, you have mostly posted
about your giving up on making Debian packages work and instead using
upstream-provided sources built against stable Debian environments.
So please, don't repeat that, I know already that you like that option.
Let me instead repeat, that Debian is what Debian is - something that
aims for stability. ALL PARTS OF DEBIAN aims for stability. Not only
whatever else besides the part you are personally excited about. ALL!
You are very welcome to join the effort of Debian. Of stabilizing.
I find it an exciting work - but some find it boring - that's ok.
There are also efforts *around* Debian, including some on doing
backporting. But the task we do here, first and foremost, before loking
into those other more fringe tasks, is that of stability.</pre>

I think you misunderstood my intentions, or are confusing me with
other person.<br>
I praise stability... I use Asterisk Debian packages since 2015.<br>
The case is that I need, for my work, to use an Asterisk 20 package
in bookworm and, as this is not available right now from Debian, I
needed to do my own backport.<br>
I don't see how this is giving up Debian packages... I still use
Debian packaging, just updated to latest 20 upstream sources and
applied Debian patches available for 20.9.3. <br>
