    From John Horigan@21:1/5 to All on Thu May 15 20:00:01 2025
    I have updated the Standards-Version to 4.7.2. We tried to secure a package sponsor before Trixie freeze, but nobody was interested.

    I tried uploading the package to Debian Salsa, but my account request was rejected. I am unimpressed.

    Why was your account request rejected?

    No reason was given for the account rejection. Perhaps they thought I was a spammer. The rejection message was

    Hello John Horigan,
    Your request to join https://salsa.debian.org/ has been rejected.


    Please contact your GitLab administrator if you think this is an error.


    I do think that this is an error, but I have no idea who to contact. There
    is no actionable appeal option.

    Dear Salsa Admins,

    Can you help John out with his application to open a Salsa account? He would like to contribute to Debian.


    John,

    A good place to look if you ever need to figure out who to contact in Debian is this page:

    Thanks Hugh!

    d/changelog:

    - trailing whitespace fixed
    - changed from unstable to experimental

    d/control: done

    d/copyright:

    - licenses are copied verbatim
    - files stanzas corrected
    - Mark put me in the authors list because I sent him several pull
    requests for minor issues discovered during packaging. I have assigned him
    all copyrights.

    d/manpages: sorted

    d/postinst:

    - automidi and amidiminder are older versions of this software that were
    distributed to Debian systems. If a Debian user installs midiminder, it is
    likely that they have one of these older packages installed. It is
    essential that the older packages are disabled.

    BUILDING.md: I'll submit a pull request to upstream.

    Just one more change to make, simply because I forgot about it in my
    previous review.

    In d/copyright, please remove the comments on lines 5 and 6.
