Author Is Elie Rosenblum (fnord@d.o) MIA?

Hi,

I'm trying to find Elie Rosenblum - He is currently listed as the
maintainer for six packages in main and one in non-free [1], and has
not had an upload since Sarge. mia-query says his last upload was in
2004-07. In 2006-12-12 there was a mail where he offered to orphan his
packages (or so I understand from mia-query's output), which was not
carried out.

I just hijacked libnetaddr-ip-perl, for which a member of the pkg-perl
team has been working on to bring it up to date. He has four other
Perl modules packaged (libc-scan-perl, libdata-flow-perl,
libnet-smtp-server-perl, libquota-perl), as well as procmail-lib.

Elie: Of course, before continuing, do you consider coming back? Do
you mind what I'm doing? I'm of course not trying to push you away,
but to push Debian's quality up

So... Is anybody interested in the packages right now? If nobody steps
forward, the pkg-perl group can take the PERL modules - but it's
always better if they are taken by somebody who actually uses them.

Now, regarding his 'album' package in non-free: popcon reports 261
users - Not too much, but not too little If it is not taken, it
should probably be removed.

I'm right now filing O: bugs on all the packages. If nobody picks them
up, I'll close them when importing into the pkg-perl group.

Greetings,
