Given the above and my previous mail to check the status of dspam development, it should come to no surprise to people that I plan to request a removal of dspam from the unstable suite which will lead to dspam being absent of the next Debian stable release and next Ubuntu release as well (of course it could still be in a PPA). Be sure that I don't enjoy this decision as my personal emails are filtered by dspam but the Debian packaging already carry quite a few patches and now it's clear that it will only grow. I'll keep the git tree of the packaging around for a while so that if somebody decides to step up I can reintroduce dspam quickly in the archive but this would need to happen before october for dspam to be part of the next stable release of Debian and probably a bit before that for Ubuntu. Tom, thanks for your hard work on Dspam, it is really appreciated. Best regards, Thomas |
