Hi Ole As upstream maintainer, I admit to being a bit confused: we agreed to move maintenance to the Debian Science Team, but then watched as skimage was dropped from testing. If the team does not take responsibility for keeping the package up to date, who is ultimately responsible?
Thank you very much for helping with the maintenance and packaging of the scikit-image package. We so appreciate all your efforts!
