I've orphaned the following packages:

libnfc                                       Marcos Vives Del Sol
procmail                                     Daniel Boland
sendmail                                     Daniel Boland
varnish                                      Jorge Diaz

The maintainers of which have been inactive for a long time (no activity since 2015), and didn't respond to my attempts to contact them.

Consequently, these maintainers' (long unused) ssh keys are also disabled.

Again, these packages are all leaves in the dependency tree, and so maybe also candidates for removal.

I'm willing to take on iperf, libfakesu, procmail, and sendmail.

The latter two have not advanced much in versions despite the years involved. libfakesu is required for both of them. iperf looks more interesting to me; updating it might give me some experience to use to finish my long-dormant port of iozone to Cygwin.
HTH & Regards,
