It might not be the end-of-the-world for you, but apparently it is for me already, even before the deadline. > -- once the > bug is fixed, it can get back to Debian Testing at any time.

I fixed the 1.5.7-1 problem in 1.5.7-2, but when I'm uploading the fix of 1.5.7-2, I got: ---------------------- ACL dm: NEW uploads are not allowed binary:dbab is NEW. source:dbab is NEW. ---------------------- The Debian FTP Masters explains that it means "DMs may not upload packages going to NEW. Need to use a sponsor for those". My package is already marked for autoremoval from testing -- https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=995769 there isn't much time left for me but I have to go through a sponsor now, even that I've got everything ready. Can you help sponsor me please? > I may get back to look into the bug later, bug I don't have enough time > recently.
