There has been lots of activity upstream. There a couple of pretty
important usability issues that should be addressed soon: in particular
handling renames and deletes of mail messages, and a pernicious (for
notmuch) performance bug in xapian.
There is preliminary debian packaging of a git snapshot at
http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/?p=notmuch.git;a=summary
If either of you wants to take that and run with it, feel free.
There is not much too it, really.
