Hi Dionysis,

sorry for coming back to you so late - the BTS doesn't actually
forward mails to the submitter, so I didn't get your message until I
more or less accidentally looked on the web.

I can sponsor you, no problem. You should probably start by reading
the maint-guide [1], and at least skim through the policy [2] and
dev-ref [3].

[2] http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/
[3] http://www.debian.org/doc/developers-reference/

Learning how to maintain a package is mostly a matter of practise, so
get going :)

Please prod me with any questions you might have if you are still
interested. (I'm Myon on irc, if you are using that.)
