Great to hear it's back. At the weekend I missed it again. > Should it go into unstable only? Try to get it into 'frozen unstable', into both. We used to re-install packages into frozen that were removed due to critical bugs. > Does it matter that the version I will be packaging is a new upstream > release from the version that was in bo and in project/orphaned? Normally that's not a good idea as it is untested. In this case tkdesk from hamm was quite old and a new version would give us several new features (I hope) and compete with others. I'd say, upload it into frozen, too. If that isn't liked Brian will refuse it early enough. > Once I do upload this (to frozen or to unstable), how do I get rid of > the tkdesk that is in project/orphaned? File a bug against ftp.debian.org.
