Please unblock iceowl/1.0~b1+dfsg1-2.
As discussed with Moritz from the security team there won't be any
security support from upstream for any of the beta releases. So I added
a note explaining that to README.Debian:
* [a8de458] Switch to source format 3.0 (quilt)
* [b92405c] Add watch file
* [5a9ee07] Add security update notice to README.Debian
If this isn't deemed enough we need to remove iceowl entirely from
testing.
Cheers,
-- Guido

Unblocked; let's hope squeeze is quiet for iceowl.
