You mean, besides completely hijacking the package? The last maintainer upload is dated 2010/05/23. So, from my POV, you (Michael) and Hilko Bengen seem to be the real package maintainers for wine. My suggestion: do a maintainer upload of 1.4 in unstable, unless it would affect some transition. And do it now. PS: I have no particular interest in wine, but, really, from what I see, this seems to be the only solution to bring more life to the package. And, of course, I have no authority (except my ignorance) for suggesting this. Just giving my advice..:)
