Re: Fwd: rednotebook removed from Debian Stable?

 

Hello
What does need a sponsor mean? Do I need to reach out to somebody in
Debian.Org and tell them to accept the package because it's ready and build
and passed all necessary prerequisites?
Or
It you need a sponsor (person that actually builds ) /create a .Deb and src
repos. And of yes what I need to do?

Sponsor vs maintainer?

Thank you
Lucas
