vrms (1.28) experimental; urgency=medium

  [ Holger Levsen ]
  * Dedicate this release to Rogério Brito. Many thanks for many
    contributions, for your kindness and everything, Rogério.
    (I have no idea what Rogério thought about renaming vrms.)
  * Introduce new binary package, check-dfsg-status, to replace vrms (and
    soon src:vrms too). Closes: #962696 but not closing #985825 yet as this
    upload will go to experimental to prepare the transition there.
    Also closes: #537941.  The transitional vrms package only ships a link
    to /usr/bin/check-dfsg-status.
    As Lars Wirzenius wrote in
    https://blog.liw.fi/posts/2021/03/29/the_leadership_problem_for_free_software/
    "We don’t need leaders with power, or with authority. We need thought
    leaders, who can persuade and convince people to do right things, and
    people who set good examples. We need many of them."
    Gunnar Wolf wrote in
    http://gwolf.org/2021/03/regarding-the-stallman-comeback.html
    "Again, the free software movement –and the world as a whole– owes a great
    deal to Stallman. He changed history. I admire his work, his persistence
    and his stubbornness. But I won’t have him represent me."
    And additionally I agree with Ivo de Decker in #962696 that the
    Debian DFSG compliancy checker should be not be called vrms, especially
    if that's not what it is/does as pointed out in #537941.
  * Update standards version to 4.6.1, no changes needed.

  [ Debian Janitor ]
  * Move transitional package vrms to oldlibs/optional per policy 4.0.1.

 -- Holger Levsen <holger@debian.org>  Sun, 07 Aug 2022 15:34:36 +0200
