I don't have any anti-spam system as of now, but I do recieve a lot of junk
mail, so I could have mistakenly deleted it. What was the subject?

We need someone to maintain the package, if you're not an "expert" that's no
big deal, you can always learn as you go (and we'll help you on it). Being a
debian maintainer implies some dedication though. Would you like to be the ASK
maintainer in debian?

It means "Request For Package". The former status was ITP, "Intent To Package".
If you intend to maintain ASK for Debian, then please set it back to ITP and
set yourself as ITPer by mailing to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and saying:
