 I totally understand your frustration, and I'm sorry that
 Debian at large can be quite bad at dealing with requests
 like this.
 
 But mailing debian-devel, which is a high-level meta
 discussion list around Debian development in general, read by
 thousands of people (and not a community of a handful people
 working on this or a couple of packages) and cc'ing unrelated
 people won't help either ...
 

Ok, so where to send email(s) if debian-devel list is not good?

 Ideas:
 - always keep the bug in the loop
 - contact the MIA team, if you think the maintainers are
 inactive - prepare an NMU and ask for sponsorship on
 debian-mentors
 

what MIA and NMU means?

 (As a personal note, I'm very appreciative about your great
 work in Maemo, and I'm very happy to see something from Maemo
 coming back to Debian, even if it's frustrating for your
 right now.)

Re: [PATCH] netplug - Allow to specify custom script file via param '-s'

Hi,

On Thu, 21 Mar 2013, Philipp Matthias Hahn wrote:
 Debian is currently in the freeze period to get the next Debian release
 released. As your enhancement patch is not release critical for Debian,
 there is no chance to get a patched package included.

There is: you can use experimental to continue working on the package
until the wheezy release. Or you can accumulate stuff in the VCS.

 So your patch will just stay in the BTS until I find some time to work
 the netplug again, which is very low on my current priority list.

It's not a very rewarding answer to someone who invested time in your
package...

When I am in a similar situation, I tend to offer the person to join as
co-maintainer. The patch is not very long and it should not be too hard
to review. Or you can redirect him towards upstream if that's better.

Cheers,
