Bug#1137252: ITS: libtnt

[Andreas Tille]

Source: libtnt
Version: 1.2.6-1.1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: Debian Science Maintainers <debian-science-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org>, Juan Esteban Monsalve Tobon <esteban at v7w.com>, Package Salvaging Team <team+salvage at tracker.debian.org>, tille at debian.org

Hi,

I would be interested in helping with libtnt, following the Package
Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1]. From what I
see, the package seems to meet the criteria for this process, and I'd
like to support keeping it maintained in Debian. As the Salvage process
suggests, here is a list of the criteria that I believe apply:

  - NMUs (more than one NMU in a row).
  - Last maintainer upload 20 years ago
  - There are QA issues with the package.

I believe the package would fit nicely into the Science team, and I
took the liberty to create the Salsa repository here[2]. If you choose
not to accept the ITS, I'd be more than happy to help you move it to
another location, such as debian/, or wherever you prefer. My goal is to
make it as easy as possible for you to join the team. I'd also be
delighted to assist in adding you as a team member if you could share
your Salsa login.

Kind regards
    Andreas.
