Great you found that out by yourself. Seems like I was just a bit too slow with my answer. I updated your bug's title. If you wonder how to do this, please take a look at: www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control ... and send those control-requests to control@bugs.debian.org and not to the bug itself, as I just did (sorry for adding useless control-request fields to your RFS bug!) Crossing my fingers that you find a sponsor for your package, soon.
