Won't make that mistake again. The other party and I have conversed and will work closer together and not have work crossover. As per reintroduction docs. I do not believe working from the archives last version is suitable. So, I will work from upstream for submission for fresh inclusion. If this gets rejected, fair enough. Next submission of this package will be me also asking to adopt/maintain the package. I will also add X-Debbugs-CC to debian-devel, which I failed to do in the last submission.
