Please allow adacontrol 1.6r8 into Etch



Hi

adacontrol 1.6r8-1 was uploaded a few days before the freeze and
is 12 days old today and ready to migrate into Etch.  Here's a
cost-benefit-risk analysis on why I think unblocking it is a good
idea:

cost: just the cost of hinting into Etch.

benefits:
- better service (more functionality: 60 new checks) for our users;
- the old version is no longer supported upstream while the new
  version is (in fact, commercial support is available);

risks: no bugs in BTS, no reverse dependencies, few users per popcon,
written in a language that prevents buffer overflows and other
niceties, so risk is close to zero.

Please?
