I have updated the changelog to briefly explain the rationale behind the priority bump. The updated package is available from mentors.d.n, if anyone is interested.

Hi everybody, this is just to remind you that Rhinote is still looking for a sponsor. As the changes for this revision are mostly patches to the software itself, which is written in Python, I'm CCing the python-apps Team hoping that someone will consider picking it up. Cheers.

Dear mentors, Rhinote is still looking for a sponsor, and it’s been a while so I think it’s a good time to bump the thread. As you can see from the full bug report for this RFS (#663151) this updated packages contains code tweaks that make Rhinote much better overall, and that Rhinote users would certainly appreciate having in a stable release. Please consider taking a look at the package and sponsoring it. Thank you. -- Andrea Bolognani Resistance is futile, you will be garbage collected. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Dear mentors, please consider reviewing and sponsoring this new Rhinote upload. As you can see from the changelog entry reported below, the updated package contains several improvements that would make using Rhinote much better; moreover, a Debian member has already reviewed the patches and found them to be okay. Thank you for your time.
