Over the past several months, as SourceForge has revamped their website, the releaseforge [0] package had quit working. Since upstream had been unresponsive for a while, it prompted me to file an RFA [1]. However, it appears that last week upstream spontaneously returned, which has made me reconsider my RFA. As of about one week ago, version 1.3 is now available from upstream [2]. This version works with all the changes to SourceForge's site. My first instinct was to simply request removal of the package. However, that is undesirable as it has already shipped with a stable release (version 1.1-1 is in Etch). Removal from Lenny would leave Etch users without any sort of upgrade path. Leaving the current version in Lenny would, however, result in a package that is completely broken for Lenny's entire life cycle. I'd like to know from the release team if an exception for this package might be considered. Or is there another potential solution which I have overlooked?
