I believe you are way overreacting.  You should rather first fint out
who made the other upload and than talk to the person.

ITP: Feb 23, Upload Mar 9, your Mar 11.

It's not that you uploaded the package right after you sent the ITP,
but several weeks later.  If other people are in need of the package
I could imagine that they don't want to wait any longer, especially
since you haven't answered the question of teo if you had packages
ready already.

Next step: Please talk to andrew to find out who will maintain
this package in the future.


Regards,

	Joey
