Its has already been 3 years since I first packaged this and if we can finally find a sponsor, I'll be more than happy... Thanks, Nick signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

I'm sorry for having been pretty rubbish; real life has just been *so* crazy in the last few years :-( Comments on the version in collab-maint (following a very brief glance at postinst): - don't use sudo in the maintainer scripts; there's no guarantee it'll be installed; it runs as root, anyway, so you can just do a plain chmod. - the install/upgrade directories are chmod +x early on, but this is not undone in the abort-* or * targets; also, the upgrade directory is never locked again - is this correct? If someone else has time to mentor this, that would be great. Julian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

I've looked at the package, and it seems to be working in testing for me. I think the next step is to contact debian-mentors to find a sponsor for the package according to this: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianMentorsFaq#How_do_I_get_a_sponsor_for_my_package.3F I'm willing to put in the time to try to find a sponsor and work out getting the package uploaded, but you guys (Nick and Jean-Pascal) are the maintainers, really. If one of you wants to take that on, I defer to you, if not, I hope you don't mind if I fight to get this into the archive.
