completely true :)

this is true too, nobody will upload something without your prior consent of
course.
But since you are active, how do you feel about somebody sponsoring this one
with some changes?
e.g. we can convert in a Team Upload, add the previous NMU to changelog entry,
and fix the outstanding issues
(e.g. Peter did a lot of upstream nice work, that would be nice to see in Debian)
+* Version 1.8.7 - Peter Colberg optimized the build configuration to make distribution builds easier

also, the new release can be syncd in Ubuntu, since it contains the delta.

So, at the end it would be nice to do some refactoring for the package :)
Can this sound as a good plan?
thanks!
