It's a graphical I think by now we've established that none of the regular sponsors here on d-mentors appear to have the time or the inclination to sponsor your package at the moment. It's time to look elsewhere for sponsorship. Are there any Debian lists where your package might be considered "in the niche" for that list? It's entirely possible that a DD on that/those list(s) might be interested in sponsoring just this package into the archive. Since you're not in NM, you can't ask your AM to sponsor your package, but if you get to that stage and still haven't found a sponsor, then you can do that, too. Do you know of any DDs located at your educational institution, either as student or staff member? You may be able to get them to sponsor the package for you, either through altruism or other means. Do you know any DDs personally, say through a local LUG, past social engagements, or even just a DD that you talk to socially through e-mail or IRC? It's a lot harder to turn down a sponsorship request made to you personally by someone you know socially. (Experience talking here). In short, d-mentors is by far not the only place to get a sponsor (and it probably isn't even the most successful way to get a sponsor, by my reckoning). - Matt
