I would like to adopt a recently removed package:
The package have still a Sid webpage, but accordingly there is no more maintainer;
but there is a maintainer in its Squeeze webpage.
How may I proceed to adopt it ?
Thanks in advance,
Jerome

I read it before sending my previous email.
what is not clear to me is the status of the Package, hence my email:
is it orphaned ? is it still maintained ? is it considered as a new software ?
Best wishes,
Jerome
Kind regards,

In addition, since it removed, check why it was removed and base your
work off the latest source package from snapshot.debian.org.

I really don't know, and I am a DD.
So once I wanted to salvage a package which was removed in testing &
unstable. I uploaded into delayed & sent an email to debian-devel,
only to be hinted that I should have simply salvaged it (uploaded it
without asking any questions).
If the package was removed, and you are not a DD, I'd recommend to
prepare the package changes, upload to mentors and file RFS bug and
wait for sponsorship or comments.
Regards,
Dmitrijs.

With much more pro-active removals happening these days we tend to get
a lot of folks wanting to reintroduce removed packages, perhaps we
need a comprehensive section in devref about this. I will file a bug
about it.

The removal information is here:

In addition to what I mentioned, you should unarchive and reopen any
bugs that were closed by the removal (those with a closed version
containing +rm):
Is there a simple and efficient way to do so ?
Sorry, I do not get how to figure out the ones closed by the removal:
can you put it in other words ?
The list is long, nevertheless I will try to see what I can do.
As it may take a while before to get a refresh Debian package,
what must I do to make a ``reservation' ? Is it an ITA ?
