[Pkg-privacy-maintainers] future of ricochet-im package in Debian

[Ximin Luo]

Hi, 

Thanks for the information; I personally don't have the time these days to update the ricochet-im package or package the refreshed version, but I will be happy to mentor someone to take over the maintenance and/or sponsor an upload of a new one.

You can consider this message a RFA (Request for Adoption)

Best,
Ximin
