Thanks! The 0.28 branch in git should probably be merged (at least the
changelog) before upload.

For the avoidance of doubt, the file you've pointed to does not
pre-approve any NMU; "Acknowledge NMU" means that the maintainer has
noticed a *previous* NMU. However I do not object to another NMU if
someone feels that's appropriate.

I cannot promise any timescale for reviewing/applying these changes,
so an NMU is absolutely fine, but please let me if you (generic) plan on
doing so. I will keep this on my radar in the meantime.

If you would like to see these changes in wheezy I recommend that you
talk directly to the release team (please CC these bugs).

Thanks :)

It sounds like it shouldn't be there then.

Cheers,
