Is there any interest from you to keep the ITP? Is anyone still
interested on this package?

I know Texas Instruments is packaging for their modules, maybe they
would be interested... (CC'ing them) I could help on this if there is
interest from you guys to have this stuff in Debian instead of keeping
it downstream.
