I am not a Debian Developer. If you are not one yourself, you will need
to find an sponsor. My sponsor is not doing work for Debian anymore
either, so I have no indications for you either. As far as maintaining
the package goes, I forwarded a few bugs upstream, but he is just
unresponsive.
The most important things I did was to upgrade the package to 1.0b7 and
switch to 3.0 quilt. Other than that, I expect all you are going to do
is looking around bugs that were not yet forwarded to the unresponsive
upstream and update debian policy.
Currently git repository points to my personal server, you would
probably like to make it point to some Debian repository. There is no
work there which isn't currently applied to the package, though.
If you are feeling adventurous, you can try and fix some of the bugs
yourself. That was the next thing I was thinking on doing.
Regards,
Rafael
