Dear mentors and Debian PhotoTools Team,

I am looking for a sponsor for a Team Upload of the package "libexif".

* Package name    : libexif

* URL             : https://libexif.github.io
* License         : LGPL-2.1+
  Section         : libs

The source builds the following binary packages:

* libexif12  - library to parse EXIF files
