Hi Sascha,

in principle I would like to sponsor.  The only thing I do not like is
the fact that two packaging repositories are hanging around in
git.debian.org.  This might be confusing for potentially interested
persons.  Please either do

  1. merge your repository into collab-maint/jquery-datatables.git
  2. if you have no access to collab-maint yet feel free to move
     your repository into Debian Med Git *and* ask Matthias for
     either removing his repository or cleaning it up from files
     and just drop a README.status file pointing to the actively
     maintained one
  3. ask Matthias for either removing his repository or cleaning it
     up from files and just drop a README.status file pointing to
     the actively maintained one and stay with your private
     repository

I'd prefer 1. and 2. (in this order) way much over 3.

Kind regards

    Andreas.
