Bug#1068578: RFH: singularity-container -- container platform focused on supporting "Mobility of Compute"



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: singularity-container@packages.debian.org, debian-devel@lists.debian.org, orv@debian.org, mehdi@dogguy.org
Control: affects -1 + src:singularity-container

Assistance required with maintaining the singularity-container package.

I am not the uploader/maintainer of this package, however I am the only
one who has been taking care of it via team uploads for more than 2 years
and all other uploaders are MIA. Few of them asked me to remove myself from
uploaders field, which I have done. However, I don't consider the package
well-maintained w/o me doing the work.
It is also stalled from migrating to stable because maintaining it there
requires backporting and testing CVE fixes and I don't have the bandwidth
to do that work, which is the reason for #1029669.

With my available time, it is unlikely that I will be maintaining it timely
or at all.

Any help for maintaining it would be great.

The package description is:
 Mobility of Compute encapsulates the development to compute model
 where developers can work in an environment of their choosing and
 creation and when the developer needs additional compute resources,
 this environment can easily be copied and executed on other platforms.
 Additionally as the primary use case for Singularity is targeted
 towards computational portability, many of the barriers to entry of
 other container solutions do not apply to Singularity making it an
 ideal solution for users (both computational and non-computational)
 and HPC centers.
