I'd like to adopt this one.  I use it and think it belongs in Debian.
It's a very nice relaxing game, sort of like solitaire, but more
interesting. :-)

I built a package, fixing one bug (which I filed during testing of an
other one) and closing one which I can't reprduce.  That leaves only one
wishlist bug open.

I'll "take over" upstream if necessary.  For now, I'll fix bugs and send
them the patches.

I retitled the O: bug to ITA (#219061) and close it (and #314543 and
#60830) in the changelog.

I need a sponsor for uploading.  Anyone interested?

The package can be found at
http://129.125.47.90/~shevek/debian/gfpoken

It is lintian-clean, except for warnings about useless update-menus
calls.  These warnings are incorrect, lintian expects menu files in
/usr/lib/menu, while they are correctly placed in /usr/share/menu by
dh_installmenu.

It is linda-clean.

Thanks,
Bas
