wormux package

How can I become the Debian maintainer for Wormux?

Asked by Robert C.

To which adress can I write, if I want to get some package in the official repos updated? I mean, the package in the repos is very outdated and I want to ping the maintainers, that there is a new version available. The specific package is Wormux - packaged version is 0.8.5, latest is 0.9.2.

I know. There is also an ppa:

ppa:wormux/ppa

But I am part of the wormux team and wanted to know, to which adress I can mail, if I want to tell the packagers that they should have a look at the wormux package.

You you are on the wormux team, why don't you become the Debian maintainer for that package. Once the package and its dependencies are in Debian, there's no reason for it not to be in Ubuntu.

Yes. That's exactly what I wanted to do. My question is now, to whom should I mail, if I ant to become a maintainer for Wormux?
