The latest packages, by the bug owner, I could find date back to year

Is anyone still working on packaging Warzone 2100 for inclusion in
Debian? If not, I am willing to hijack this ITP.
CC'ing this to Angus in hope that he will shed some light on the current
situation.
I asked Fanio once in March what he intended with this package and got no response. Since I gained upstream commit rights through other patches, I figured I may as well just submit my packaging files. I would be happy for you to take over package ownership and upload to Debian.
Before an upload into Debian proper, I'd suggest changing the package name to warzone2100{,-data} and possibly weakening the -data package dependency to simply $source:Upstream-Version, so we don't have to release a new (large) -data package for a simple binary recompile.
