Does anytime know if the maintainers of SSSD are still active? There don't
appear to have been any binary uploads for quite some time (March, I
believe), the entire suite was auto-pulled from testing 2 months ago with
no follow-up action, and it looks like there are a couple outstanding CVEs.

I can say that for those using Debian in a corporate or education
environment, the lack of SSSD pretty much makes Debian unusable (it's how
we [used to] plug into Active Directory enterprise auth/account providers).
Do we need to solicit new (or more) maintainers for this? I would step in,
but my bandwidth is limited and I'm not up to speed on the current Debian
package maintenance policies and procedures.

TIA,
-Eric
