strongswan and NetworkManager-strongswan packages were passed to me

previous maintainer. I admit I have little experience with them and do
not run any service based on them. Because IPSsec is quite complex
technology, I am looking for help with its maintenance. I was always
using OpenVPN based solutions myself, so I guess I am not the best
person as main admin. I would like to transfer main admin to anyone
doing a good job, not not immediately. That is why I haven't orphaned it
already.
I would like to keep commit access for a while, but I would share at
least commit access with anyone willing to improve those packages.
Especially someone using they (almost) everyday would be ideal maintainer.
I have been maintaining strongswan for the last couple of years now. I use
it regularly at upstream libreswan to run interop testing. I am actively
maintaing strongswan for this. I am also an admin on this package. Pavel
is also an admin but he has not worked on the package in many years.
But orphaning seems a bit dramatic when there is an active maintainer ? :)
As for NetworkManager-strongswan, I am not an actie user of this, but I
could just pick it up for the community. I see it is two versions
behind, so I'll go and update it. For some reason,
src.fp.org does not
want to show me this package, so I cannot see who else has admin/commit
rights (or request admin/commit for it)
