Yes, I'm aware. My packaging effort will initially concentrate on getting
the package into shape for squeeze and wheezy. This will obviously not be
in the Debian archve. Indeed it seems reasonable to upload to unstable
after 2.4 lands there.

I'll give it a spin with 2.4 soon so we can give upstream some time to fix
issues should they arise.
