Oh, I'm sorry.
It's been over 2 months since that version was migrated to testing and I
didn't think you'd care. We were using this at work and I decided that
it's better to have it in bpo than have it in the internal repository.
Contacting the former uploader is on bpo's best practices but it's on a
strict rule of bpo, is it? Not that it's a bad idea, it's just not
always very practical.
Again, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you, but I don't see a reason
to be upset anyway.
