Didn't notice that Expat vs MIT naming is one of the regards in which debian/copyright and SPDX differ. Moot as I bumped to the Git version with the license change. > Later license change.

Since this package is mostly high-performance assembly implementations of common utility functions and algoritmhs (byteswapping, Base64, UTF-8 validation, etc.) I'd wager it's simply "done" and hasn't required any maintenance. It's still used transitively by Segment's other software, notably github.com/segmentio/encoding, which just today received a release after multiple years. I've also prepared the packaging for that so I'll need to update it now! Looking at GitHub results it's also used transitively in at least 10s, likely 100s, of other Go packages. So a tad surprising it hasn't ended up being packaged so far. > I would suggest you push forward with working as part of the Go Team and > hopefully have a member sponsor this package for you if they feel it is > beneficial to have in Debian. Indeed, that's why I thought it appropriate to CC devel-go@ on the RFS. :) Thank you for the very prompt review Phil! Raul
