Subject: O: bongo -- flexible and usable media player for Emacs

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

As I no longer use Debian's versions of Emacs, I intend to orphan
the bongo package.  The package is simple, and upstream is very
responsive.

The package description is:
 Bongo is a media player for Emacs that is flexible and usable. User
 interaction is handled via two simple buffers for your media library
 and the current playlist (but you can have as many Bongo buffers as
 you wish).
 .
 It supports several player backends such as mpg321, ogg123, VLC or
 mplayer and has built-in support for displaying album covers and
 submitting songs to Last.fm. It is comparable to EMMS but has a
 stronger focus on usability and on presenting a consistent user
 interface.

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Greetings!

I have packaged the Bongo[0] mail and calendaring software (previously
known as Hula), but of course the name "bongo" is taken in Debian.

If nobody wants to take ownership of the current bongo package, might
you consider renaming it? I have no idea how many people are using it
apart from using the popcon data[1] which doesn't show vast numbers. I
certainly do not think that this should determine who gets the "bongo"
package name, but I'm certain more people would be using the Bongo mail
and calendaring software..

Is this possible, or even acceptable?

Thanks very much!

Regards,
