[GNC] Gnucash 3 in the Debian / Ubuntu pipeline?

[Lincoln A Baxter]

Just curious...  It has been almost a year since Gnucash was removed to
Debian testing.

It has (re)entered SID on 7/4, and there it sits...

Who is responsible for working on the "excuses" for why is stays in
SID: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/gnucash, and has not migrated to
Testing?
