Hi,
The maintainer of sgf2tex (Petra Malik) orphan it. I take it, but I
want to remove this (source) package and replace it by sgf2dg (upstream
new name).
I send you in attachment the mail from the old maintainer.
Best regards,
Vincent Danjean
PS: the new source package (sgf2dg) create an empty sgf2tex binary
package to allow smooth upgrade. It should be very soon in the NEW
queue.

Nice, I am glad that somebody wants to take care of it.
I quite like it but haven't used it much in recent times.

Yes, sounds good. Go ahead.
Should I do a last upload and set the maintainer to Debian QA Group?
I haven't done that yet even though it is part of the orphaning procedure.
Cheers,
Petra
