Hi Nik,

Were you planning on taking over upstream maintenance at some point, or
just keeping a mirror of the web pages up?  Also, what was the origin of
the mirror -- had you been in contact with James Knoble?

Basically, I'm wondering if I should switch to your site as the new
upstream, or just remove the Homepage metadata if the package is now
orphaned and reference your site in other parts of the documentation so
that people can find the original information.  (Also, there are a ton of
changes that we're carrying in the Debian package that would probably be
worth merging into a newer version if you were planning on taking over
maintenance.)
