Debian's ftpmasterteam has been responsible for allowing new packages to enter Debian,removing old packages, and otherwise maintaining Debian's packagearchive for more than two decades. As of October26, the team isno more and its duties are being split between two new teams. The ArchiveOperations Team will focus on the infrastructure required tosupport the Debianarchives, and the DFSG, Licensing & NewPackages Team, which is responsible for reviewing packagesentering the newqueue. In time, this move could speed up processing of newpackages, as well as making the teams more sustainable, but only afternew members are recruited and trained. For now, the same folks aredoing the work but spread across two teams.
