RFS systemd-cron

[Alexandre Detiste]

Hi,

I do know about the official process [1]; but I would like if possible
that this package remain maintained by systemd-team; so I post here
first.

Original uploader Shawn Landden seems to be MIA and Michael did some
uploads ad interim, but now suggests me to ask for a new sponsor.

All the necessary bits for a new release are already on Alioth
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/systemd-cron.git/

I'd be happy if some DD could review & publish this package.
If everything is fine, you only need to amend the changelog with your name.

Future plans:
- do a stable-proposed-update for 8.1after Jessie is released
- fix remaining bugs not tagged "fixed-upstream"; but as the scope of
this package is limited (fullfill policy §9.5) ; it is already pretty
much done
