Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

It looks like [1] everyone involved in packaging SILC has lost
interest. kopete-silc-plugin should be considered as orphaned until
others pick up the Alioth project or the packages.

The package description is:
 Plugin for Kopete instant messaging client to support the SILC
 protocol.
 .
 SILC (Secure Internet Live Conferencing) is a protocol which provides
 secure conferencing services in the Internet over insecure channel. SILC
 is like IRC although internally they are very different. The biggest
 similarity between SILC and IRC is that they both provide conferencing
 services and that SILC has almost same commands as IRC. Other than that
 they are nothing alike. The biggest differences are that SILC is secure
 and IRC is not in any way. The network model is also entirely different
 to IRC.
