Argh! I am very nearly ready to release a new alien that integrates in
martin's functionality. I've just been doing some testing of it this week,
and working thorugh a compilcated bug report with one user. I was planning
on releasing it by friday at the latest, tonight at the earliest.
Since I doubt this martian package will be out of the Incoming on master
before friday, could you just withdraw the package now and save us bug
reports against ftp.debian.org later?
