Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I am orphaning lilo.
The current maintainer William Pitcock <neno...@dereferenced.org> have
no interest for a long time for maintaining lilo (see links). From
co-maintainer Matt Arnold <mattarno...@gmail.com> I know he have not
enough time for maintaining lilo, but he would like to provide a new
maintainer.

stable release (squeeze):

package if you will have enough time and attention to work on it.

Because the CTTE will decide about the next steps of this package [1] in
the next future, this package should not be set as 'orphaned'. So I close
this bug.
