It would be helpful if you'd reply to bugs you're working on - to an outside
observer (like me), it looks somewhat as though the alien-arena package has
been abandoned. I'm glad that's not the case!
I'm still not sure that alien-arena should be in squeeze at the moment, though,
so I'm not closing this bug - when your package for 7.32 is uploaded, it should
only take 10 days to get back into squeeze whether 7.0 was already there or
not. Removing things from testing is a lot less drastic than removing them
from the archive altogether.
