[Pkg-auth-maintainers] Maintainance of Yubikey-related packages

[Nicolas Braud-Santoni]

Hi,

It came to my attention that the pkg-auth team is the listed maintainer
of several Yubikey-related packages which seem not to receive attention
anymore.

This concerns 14 packages[0], covering:
- 25 bugs, including 5 RC bugs;
- 8 packages with new upstream versions.

In the case of the packages I'm most familiar with, libu2f-{host,server}
and pam-u2f, trivial FTBFS bugs have stayed open 2-3 months without
acknowledgement until they were solved by NMUs.

I would like to join the team and take over maintainership of those 3
packages.  Moreover, I suggest we:
- file RFAs for the other 11 packages;
- move the packaging repositories to Alioth, so that we can actually
  maintain a state in Git that matches the state of the archive;
  this was a particularly frustrating issue when preparing my NMUs.

Unfortunately, I do not even own the hardware required to use the
remaining 11 packages, so I cannot possibly take over their maintenance.


Best,

  nicoo
