Best is to ask the Debian release-team or (if there exist) maintainers
or responsibles for the IA64 port - which is an ***unofficial*** port.

Here we go:

https://lists.debian.org/debian-ia64/

Posting address: debian-ia64@lists.debian.org

Found via <https://lists.debian.org/completeindex.html>

More useful perhaps is to look at https://popcon.debian.org/

There are three machines reporting popcon results.  It's dead.

Exactly, Debian Popularity Contest was what I was looking for yesterday.

Thanks Matthew.

Name                              || Number  || %
==================================
binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu || 101548  || 49.61%
binutils-ia64-linux-gnu     ||          11  || 0.01%

HELP: Inst. is the number of people who installed this package (sum of
the four categories below)

There may be more popular packages than binutils.
( binutils might tell something about development happening or not. )

Anyway, I am not a popcon expert and never participated in Debian's
Popularity Contest.
