Hi Pino, Ritesh,

Three months have passed and I would kindly invite you to re-evaluate the 
status of robojournal in Debian.

It is clear that upstream didn't show any activity in the last 3 months and 
that rrs didn't make uploads in Debian as well. The Vcs repositories (on 
Alioth) is now defunct too.

With no sign of improvement, I still suggest that this package be removed from 
Debian sooner or later.

Thank you for all your work and I will keep monitoring it.
