Hi Charles,

The Maintainer field has to be changed to fix bug #847262.

I do not think you need to wait for Fernando.  If you take over
maintainership and by doing so even a RC bug is fixed there is no
point for waiting.  I simply added this delay in case nobody might
take over and I would do a NMU (without fixing bug #847262).

There is also no point in respecting the freeze policy since the
package is not in testing (unfortunately).  So just upload what's
currently in Git. :-)

Sure.  Its in the Debian/ team now.  Many fortunes-* package reside
there and this permits anybody to do a team upload.

If you feel better to use the Salvage team as maintainer, well, that's
OK, but from my point of view Debian/ team is perfectly fine.

Enjoy Brasilian fortunes
