Hello all,

I was away then I got back and got buried by work and misc real life
things, and Debian release critical bugs :(

I have been on the http://wiki.debian.org/LowThresholdNmu list for a
long time and I want to encourage you all to consider this and step
for NMU, or team-maintenance (especially for wireshark and libgphoto2,
I should have done this earlier).  I am all for alioth but no news yet
about my request for a pkg-wireshark project.

Here ends my request for help, thanks,


        Frederic

Forwarding my answer so that people know libgphoto2 and exif will be
taken care of through pkg-phototools.

I'd be pleased to welcome your photo-related packages (libgphoto, exif,
etc.) into the pkg-phototools group. I'm currently lacking time a bit,
but I should be able to step in during the next week.
