xiota [1] filed an orphan request for mate-menu [2]:

Current maintainer (gremlinz88) account was created a couple days before adopting package and adding install script with hidden telemetry, in same style as recently confirmed malware in mdbtools.

For the record, the offending commit has been reverted and the account has been banned. We will accept this orphan request once we'll be able to. In the mean time, I'm happy to promote someone as co-maintainer if anyone wants to jump in. -- Regards, Robin Candau / Antiz
