Personally, I am not in favour of an additional group. Isn't group daemon
sufficient?

I am not (yet) a Debian maintainer. Remi Lefebvre (remi@debian.org) is 
sponsoring my packages.

I have nearly finished the packaging of nut. I am very much interested in
continuing with it's packaging and I must have missed your email in the
flood of stuff I receive from debian-devel.

I should be done by the weekend, scholastic endeavours and my new UPS cable
