Secure testing team - Aug 2008 - owl-dms removal from lenny

Hi

owl-dms has only a few users according to popcon[0] and is vulnerable to a few 
security issues[1]. The question is whether it would be better to remove it 
from lenny and maybe give it one more release cycle to improve and age a bit.
It would also shift some workload away from the security team :)
What does the release team and the maintainer think about a removal?

Cheers
Steffen

It looks like a removal might be reasonable right now, but I really
would love to hear a word from the maintainer about this.

Hi, All

Im sorry my delay.

I think owl-dms can be removed from Lenny. As just a few people use
it, maybe I can remove from Debian, or put it for adoption.

Regards
Jose Carlos
