Hi, I'm looking to take over the ‘temporary’ package. This is to address the issue of any patches/fixes into ‘temporary’ not being merged in a timely manner[1]. This caused Roman Cheplyaka to create a fork package, ‘temporary-rc’. It's less than ideal to have some packages use temporary and others use temporary-rc (PackageImports needed…) so this is in attempt to bring back temporary as the one true package to use here and let the fork fall into obscurity, preferably deprecated. The main user of temporary-rc is the popular tasty package which is Roman's. If me/him/us both/someone (reliable/available) can take over temporary, he seems to be willing to go back to using that instead of the fork[2]. CCing the current maintainer. I think until Monday (27th) is a fair notice though I point out more time elapsed on [1] without a reply.
