There is always the option of either recruiting one of those disappointed users to maintain the package, or doing it yourself. It seems that there are no outstanding bugs against the package, so there should be no problem with using the existing package, and I see that 0.6 is still the current version so I presume that it's not a fast moving package, so should really only need uploads as bugs are reported, or once every release to keep up with relevant policy changes. This is one route into debian: http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/maintainer-intro I'd imagine that Luca would be willing to hold your hand for the first upload if that helps (assuming that he's still up to speed on the package). Luca? It seems a shame to lose a bug-free package when you apparently have users that are going to miss it.
