Bug#806666: Should advene be removed?

I am the upstream maintainer of Advene. The project is not abandoned,
but the port to gtk3 + gstreamer 1.0 is not simply trivial, and needs
more time than I can invest right now. It is still in my todo list, but
it will not be ready for the next Debian release.

It is indeed already removed from testing (see #785818).

Cheers,
Olivier
