The current maintainer of html2ps, Stephen Zander <gibreel@debian.org>,
is apparently not active anymore.  Therefore, I orphan this package
now.  If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Hi there,

looking at the rather long buglist for this package, shouldn't we 
consider to remove it from the distribution?

Kind regards,

Potentially, yes. I usually make a recomendation when I'm preparing a QA
upload, if I think it isn't worth the effort. I suspect html2ps is something
that is worth the effort of keeping in the distribution though (in my
opinion).

regards

Andrew

retitle 279769 ITA: html2ps -- HTML to PostScript converter

thanks


I'm interested in taking up this project.

Not a DD but I do see this project as having a use, some of the bugs
appear to be duplicated so that will mean in reality about 2-3 less
bugs at least (i think).
