And I did. I uploaded a package, and closed all bugs. Before
the freeze, even. It is under my name in the BTS. It was put into the
archive way before the freeze.

It is now listed as my package! II even posted on this earlier
that the bugs have been fixed.
Michael> I've done a new release which I believe fixes all outstanding bugs.
Michael> Turbo, would you like to take over the package?
NO NO nOOOO
Please look berfore you do this!. You have effectively
hijacked my package. Please do not offer it to other people. Please
retract your upload. I am no lonmger willing to give up this package,
after all the effort that I have put in it.

* New maintainer.

* Made all the maintainer scripts follow the Skeleton maintainer scripts
Written by Charles Briscoe-Smith, March-June 1998.

the problem faced while removing the package. Make sure the script is
way more robust about misssing directories and all. closes: Bug#25609
* Changed dependency to xemacs20-bin instead of xemacs20 (which does
not, in fact, exist). closes: Bug#25585
* Made the install/remove scripts always return a valid exit status, and
be generally better behaved. closes: Bug#26536
* Made the rules file more genralized, and more in line with my ther
packages.
* Also install the HTML documentation, since we are supposed to be moving
to HTML, after all
* Fix the control file. There was no section and priority information,
so dpkg-genchanges complained.
