Bug#304819: spca5xx debian package
Hi Kel and Itay
One of the packages I have been planning for Debian is the spca5xx
package for which I filed a ITP some time back. Since I believed my
NM application was shortly to be completed I decided to not use my
normal sponsor for this package preferring to wait until I could do my
own uploads.
Here is the ITP and associated comments:

To my dismay the NM process is still not complete, the AM
just has too much work on his plate to complete the application.
Recently several people have talked to me about using my sponsor for
the spca5xx package and not keep waiting for the NM queue. Okay
.. so I am now moving on this and want to get the package in Debian ASAP.
Rechecking the ITP I noticed that Itay Ben-Yaacov pointed out that you
guys both have a package already complete. There is no point in
reinventing the wheel so Id like to use your work.
I plan on dropping the changelog (if that is ok) entries but, of
course, give full credit in the README. I am writing to make sure you
are okay with this direction and to make sure you are happy with the approach.
If you guys want to help with this (or even co-maintain) I'll put the
package online for your review before uploading to my sponsor. Since
you guys have already done the hard work it should be up quite soon.
Steve
