volatile.debian.org: Does Debian still support it?



The Debian volatile archive is the place for packages that expires
before new Debian release. The description perfectly fits for my
package libdatetime-timezone-perl.

I prepared a few weeks ago new releases for sarge and etch. The
release is based on old packages which have refreshed just timezone
data, based on Olson Database. The API is not change so it fits to
Debian's philosophy of backporting changes to prevent breaking
compability.

I uploaded them a week ago and... nothing.

After 30th of September the timezone data for New Zealand will be not
correct (Bug#440258). The users who rely on Debian package will notice
that something goes wrong.

Please, tell me what should I do so I could see my package in volatile
archive? I'm a little disappointed that I was just ignored.

My packages are also available at http://people.debian.org/~dexter/volatile/
