I hope it also raises the Standards-Version. it is, don't worry :) anyhow I have to finish some little things, packages can be found at http://debian.esaurito.net/unstable/netselect_0.3-5_i386.deb I'm planning to have all the minor things done within two or three days (or the next year, perhaps :) ) filippo

No, I'm not in the NM queue, I'm just waiting for a DD to sign my gpg key. Probably I'll get my key signed the next month or so. > > Have a great weekend.

Yeah. Avery's alive. I walked over and talked to him, and he's willing to be your upstream. I'll take a look at your packages next week, OK? Are you also in the New Maintainer queue yet? It takes a long time to get in so you might want to start soon. Have a great weekend. Simon

I'd rather someone else sponsored your package, just because even the effort of looking at your patches may delay the package indefinitely. Thanks! Avery

I'd be willing to sponsor you if Avery doesn't have time to. Simon
