Thanks for your efforts, Thaddeus. I'm glad somebody has been looking
after it for the last year or two!
I rely on debmirror in a few places, so I intend to adopt it. Its git
repository is currently in collab-maint and I see no reason to change
that, so I don't at all mind if anyone else wants to help as well.
