I don't have objections, I just found it curious that Brian is
actually not MIA, e.g. his latest mail to #171769 is only 6 days
old. Brian, I think it would be best just to tell Martin that it is OK
to take the package. And Martin, it really looks like he doesn't
particularly care about the package, so if you already have a package
ready, I don't mind you hijacking it to get it in sarge. And for a
development version which is not actively maintained, well... kill
it. :)
Best regards,
Lukas
