In fact you don't try to adopt, but to hijack it. The package is not
officially orphaned (yet). However, given the original maintainer
seems to be MIA your approach could be acceptable to potential sponsors.
Did you incorporate changes of the two most recent NMUs? You do not
seem to acknowledge them in your changelog. Also I wonder what the
point in using CDBS is, if you use it as wrapper around debhelper only.
On the other hand I prefer not to touch anything using CDBS, so I'd
leave an extensive review to someone touching your package before or
after getting an absolution or some holy water.
Thanks for caring though, kismet needs some packaging love, indeed.
