Nope, I have no connections with upstream and have no idea what's going on with the upstream wxwidgets3.0 port. I've sort of neglected to take care of this package lately...which is a bit ironic, given that the reason I added myself as an uploader in the first place was because codeblocks was just bitrotting in the archive at the time. > Would you rather package a snapshot from the upstream VCS, or try to > patch the currently packaged release for wx3?

In case I haven't made it clear previously, you're more than welcome to NMU codeblocks; I doubt David and/or Michael would object. I'm open to patching it if it's not too intrusive, otherwise I suggest just dropping it for jessie and carrying on with the wxwidgets transition. I don't think a package with maintainers that are more or less inactive should be blocking it.
