removal of bitchx

[Stephan Hermann]

Dear Colleagues,

I need some advice:

there are least 2 CVEs for bitchx (source ircii-pana) but upstream seems
to be dead.
I would like to request a removal of this package.

Why?

First, we have (as console replacement) irssi in our archives, which is
quite active, secondly for the X fanatics we have several other irc
clients in our archives.
Third, dead upstream is not ok for a package in debian and ubuntu.


Some random thoughts, or should I file a removal request via LP and DBTS?

Regards,

\sh
