Upstream these days is at http://git.sameswireless.fr/l2tpns.git and I note Fernando has been maintaining Debian packaging. As I haven't been using l2tpns for some time I have emailed him asking if he would like to take over maintenance of the package in Debian. It's probably best to send fixes directly upstream.
