This status update is helpful.  Thank you.  I would be very happy if we
could migrate the Debian packaging to salsa.debian.org.  This is
independent for what new home you might decide for your upstream code.

Good to know.

Using codeberg, gitlab or github coming to mind to simplify hosting it
on your own.

Thank you for the clarification.

Not sure whether you want to talk to that someone.  Some real Git
repository with the development history would probably be helpful. 

I would like to follow this todo list:

  1. You create some new home with a downloadable tarball (either on
     those hosting platform or your own site)
  2. I would volunteer to create a Debian *packaging* Git on
     salsa.debian.org and will grant you push permissions.
     That way we can collaborative work on the Debian packaging.

What do you think?

Kind regards
    Andreas.
