Thanks for having taken over the task. Below follows a copy of my
initial request.

Our overall goal, as Debian Multimedia Team, is to provide etch
backports of the packages we maintain to people who need bleeding edge
audio/video software (in this area the latest and greatest version is
often the best to use), but don't want to follow lenny.

Ciao!

Hi,

first of all thanks for the great service backports.org is providing!

I'm the (co)maintainer of some audio/multimedia Debian packages:

http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=freee@debian.org

and I'd like to provide etch backports for most or all of them. Is the
archive at backports.org already accepting uploads target to etch?

I've read that in order to get my key in the keyring, I have to ask
Norbert Tretkowski, is this the right address? If so please add it,
you find it here:

Ciao!
