I don't know where they've moved, or if they've moved.  I'll search.

I have not been able to find a new upstream for this package.  Yet I do not want it tree cleaned.  Any comments?

I think there was a "canonical" HOMEPAGE for packages without one, and as soon as we can mirror the tarball, I see no issue for keeping the package if you want :/

Comment 4 Felix Janda 2016-08-18 19:47:27 UTC

How about trying to ask the author (Andrew Patterson) about the status
of the project? (He still seems to be active (see e.g.
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=830159)).

Or switch to Debian's https://packages.qa.debian.org/s/spew.html .
