I was responsible back in 2009 for the first upload, but then Timo
Jyrinki and Gilles Filippini (both Bcc:ed) took care of it.  Also
because I left the pkg-fso team back in 2012:

  
<https://alioth-lists-archive.debian.net/pipermail/pkg-fso-maint/2012-March/004787.html>

And FWIW I was quite surprised this package was still in Debian, since I
know no other devices than the OpenMoko Neo FreeRunner using it (on
Debian).

I fully support its removal, also because of the two other serious bugs:

- <https://bugs.debian.org/845637>
  FTBFS with xserver 1.19

- <https://bugs.debian.org/899810>
  xf86-video-glamo: Invalid maintainer address 
pkg-fso-ma...@lists.alioth.debian.org

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
