I wonder if there is a better way to deal with this than reassigning #1024493
to the tech-ctte? (Looping in the community team would be my other idea.)

I'm also wondering if someone who is describing promoting nazis^wtheir white
german heritage as a question of opinions is really suitable to be a Debian
developer! Seriously. Go to that webpage and read yourself. (But do use torbrowser...)

Also, this developer is on the lowNMU list, so maybe NMUing the package
and removing the links pointing to that homepage could be a first,
hopefully rather non-controversial step.

But then, I really don't see why we should keep software by an open white supremacist
in Debian, if there are alternatives, and there are, as documented in this
bug.
