I suggest to package thtest version if it fixes all bugs. Working on
the really outdated version would be stupid. If I understand it right
it is not to late to get it into woody if you upload fast. Unfortunately
I have no time currently, but if I should do an NMU I would gladly do that.
Hint: If you package from scratch (which might be a very good idea) please
split up into xconq (architecture dependend binary) and
xconq-common or xconq-data (or whatever) which contains architecture
independent stuff to avoid bloating the archive.

As I said: Get rid of this outdated old stuff and take the new one.
Kind regards
