[Pkg-pascal-devel] release state of tuxcmd

Hi Tomas,

I am considering to take up maintenance of the tuxcmd package in Debian
[0] which is currently unmaintained [1]. We recently started a package
team to support packages written in pascal [2] and I think the Debian
tuxcmd package should have it's home there.

Looking at the sourceforge website [3], the latest release I see is
0.6.70 (2009), while your git repository seems to feature up to 0.6.78.
Could you please elaborate on your release strategy? I am fine with
taking git tags if that is how you currently work.

You seem to not have been too busy with tuxcmd lately (one commit in the
last 8 months). How do you see the future of tuxcmd? I assume you are in
"maintenance mode". If I would get tuxcmd code related bugs in Debian,
are you likely to help solving them, or would it mean that I had to deep
dive into the code myself (not that coding is a problem per se, but of
course you are way more familiar with the code).

Paul
