Is Mari Wang MIA?

Hi.

I've been trying to contact Mari Wang for about three weeks now, first
through private e-mail then through the BTS [1]. The private e-mail was
pretty much the same as the last response to #521889, explaining that I
work on the webgui package and it needed the latest upstream for
libimage-exiftool-perl (thus filing a bug), but also offering to take
over the package to the Debian Perl Group [2]

The last upload for that package was on 2008-06-15, sponsored by Petter
Reinholdtsen [3]. Also, libimage-exiftool-perl is the lone package being
maintained by Mari Wang.

Can anyone get in touch with her?

Sorry about the late reply - I am indeed alive, and I intend to keep
maintaining libimage-exiftool-perl. Whether I continue to do that
alone or as part of the Debian Perl Group, isn't really all that
important to me. I've got a new version of the package (7.82) just
about ready for upload, give me a day or two (I want to take another
look at it when this headcold leaves, hopefully along with all the
cotton in my head).

All the best

Mari

Great to hear from you!

Keeping the package in Debian Perl gives you a VCS and lots of
maintainers willing to help out and developers to help improve packaging
skills plus sponsor uploads.

Have you had a chance to review your package?

It's the only one holding the latest webgui 7.7 package I have ready for
upload to close a couple of bugs.
