politics aside, I'm happy if you want to add yourself to uploaders or
even take over the package.
Cynthia (our child) has GERD, and - well, if you have been through
that, you'll know, and if you haven't there is no possible description
that will communicate it.
I'm sorry that the minor release has been blocking a significant fix
in another package.
'nuff said.
