Exactly!!
This entire episode is unfortunate and as opensource software users and developers, it's our duty to make sure personal egos and bureaucratic hindrance does not affect spirit and development.
Hope a solution is worked out soon.
Dear debian management team - you are good guys, just don't let projects die because a rule written on paper says so.. Or because someone from top level management thinks otherwise.
Let us work together.

WTF?
I'm part of developer team for Huayra GNU/Linux [1] a debian derivated
distro that shipped in more than MILLON of netbooks to high school
students in past years. And today the State was delivered about
5.316.988 netbooks
I was very sad this news. Debian Live and specific tool live-builder is
our main build system and the BEST tool to make live systems. (including
compare on other gnu/linux distributions)
The Daniel (and another contribs) work was excelent.
Please, Debian developers must still support this project.
