Thanks for setting this up.

I have pushed task, taskd and timew to repositories within the group
(although I haven't yet updated d/control::Maintainer/Vcs-Git/Vcs-Browser).

Several hours later the repositories still aren't visible in cgit
however - is there an issue with permissions, or do new groups just take
a while to show up?

There is one other package which might be of interest: vit (a curses ui
for taskwarrior). Last update to the package was 2014 (although I think
it is actually still the latest upstream release), maintainer is
`alejandro at debian.org` (whom I haven't interacted with, but he
created the initial taskd packaging so might conceivably be either
interested in joining the team or making the package team maintained).
