Ondrej, Charlie,

You can also ask for sponsor for -2, even while -1 is in NEW. This won't
"disturb" the package for sure. The first version in unstable would
simply be -2. For example, see console-setup having two versions in NEW[1].

This feature is especially useful when you find serious problems with -1
that could make it rejected.
