Hi, version 0.9-1 is available via mentors.debian.net now. The new upstream release includes a few bugfixes and new functions. This package is lintian-clear (which means it does not even produce warnings, as I can see it) and builds fine in an pbuilder environment. I'd appreciate any hints and/or sponsorships.
