Thanks for the offer of doing an NMU.

Currently the wxMaxima manual is in transition from a HTML file made
with a proprietary tool to a .md file that can be edited by the
maintainers and (using pandoc and po4a) can be converted into localized
HTML.

As soon as that is done a new wxMaxima release will take place that I
will upload to unstable: I was trying to avoid uploading a
nearly-obsolete version of the program.

Kind regards,

  Gunter.
