I've reviewed your plan. Over the years I've maintained a telnet
upstream so I have some familiarity with the space even though I am no
longer involved in the telnet server universe.
I think your plan makes sense and I support it.
I definitely think Debian should still have a telnet server, although it
is very much a niche application
Thanks Guillem and Simon for your work on this!
