It’s been a long time since we’ve been aware of who is packaging Pidgin and our other software and we’d like to correct that. This information is important so we can quickly convey a quick release for a critical fix or when we inevitably are releasing due to security issues.
So if you are currently packaging Pidgin or any of our other software please comment below and let us know so we can add you to the [@packagers](https://discourse.imfreedom.org/groups/packagers) group here which has access topics relating to packaging and security.

I am a Debian & Ubuntu packager. I am not directly involved in packaging Pidgin but I’m interested in the Pidgin 3 packaging work.
