No thank you.

When I moved libsrtp to this team, my intend was for it to have 
potentially more developers caring, not for it to get sacked.

This incident taught me a lesson in team maintainance.  I will be more 
cautious about the teams I join in the future.

The package have already been reuploaded awaiting ftpmaster approval - 
but maintained by me alone now, not this team.  I am on the 
low-threshold NMU list, and the package is (since some years) maintained 
at collab-maint area, so feel to help out if truly interested.  Help is 
much appreciated.  Help to *improve*, that is, not to wipe out.


>The reason it was dropped was that it was unbuildable and unmaintained,

Yeah, so you say.  Feel free to judge like that - I no longer care.

True now, and true two weeks ago - there was absolutely no need to rip 
it out of Debian for that to happen.  All it required was f*ing wait a 
little longer than those few days before killing the package, or perhaps 
even sending me a ping - it is not like my email address was hard to 
find, being all over the changelog.



Regards,
