I am hereby requesting for a freeze exception as it gets in new and
updated network support to the package compared in testing right now

Also furthermore from the package readme:

"The Package contains only informational files so it's
safe for distributions to grab updates even during feature freeze and
maintenance stages."

and this package in the past has got freeze exceptions due to the above:

A diff from the current version in testing is also attached for your reference

 Kindly request somebody to upload the package.

Have a nice day!

Regards,
