[Pkg-privacy-maintainers] Bug#979755: RFA: coyim

[Sascha Steinbiss]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I would like to put the coyim package up for adoption.

CoyIM is a XMPP (Jabber) chat client with built-in Tor support and
privacy/security features.

I myself am not longer a CoyIM user and with increasing work load
recently I can not find the time to incorporate upstream's 
not-sooo-recent restructuring of their dependency repositories,
which would require packaging new Go libraries and deprecating the
old ones. This is golang-github-twstrike-gotk3adapter-dev and
golang-github-twstrike-otr3-dev, whose newest versions (needed for the
new coyim version) have been moved to different GitHub repos under the
coyim organization instead of twstrike.

This has led to coyim not even being in buster due to an unfixed RC bug
(#930332) which would likely be fixed by updating to the latest
upstream version (0.3.11).

I would be happy if someone who cares can take over. If no one speaks up
in a couple of weeks or so, I will move on with orphaning the package.

Thanks
Sascha
