Dear Debian contributors,
Today we had a very productive MIA team BoF session to discuss the
current status of the MIA team and to clarify its mission. We think the
MIA team's scope falls into three main categories:
# Package Maintenance
Identifying inactive package maintainers and transitioning
maintainership when necessary.¹
This was the original scope of the MIA team when it was founded.
# Security
Protecting the Debian archive, infrastructure, and data by ensuring that inactive key holders no longer have upload rights or access to Debian
machines.
# Project Resources
Identifying inactive Developers and Maintainers and reporting this to
DAM, so that voting quorums, service access, and other project-level
resources can be handled accordingly.
As the current MIA process does not scale well and is facing several challenges, the team is working on refining the process. This is being
done in close collaboration with DAM, NM, the Keyring Maintainers, and
the Community Team. Further updates will be shared as progress is made
and feedback will be sought.
¹ The ITS (Intent to Salvage) process remains the appropriate path.
Tobi, Mattia (for the MIA Team)
