Hello Jeroen, thanks for the pointer, I almost completely forgot about this package.

Rune didn't have the time anymore to maintain this package, and I didn't think the newer versions to be appropriate for Debian. > If this package goes un-updated for another month or so, I think steps > should be taken to either orphan it or remove it. Now coming back to this I couldn't help but notice that even the package version already present in Debian contains some of the problems I pointed out for the most recent upstream versions: there are some images / sounds included whose redistribution terms are quite unclear; some of those might have been taken from sources that only permit non-commercial use. Until upstream clarifies this situation (and I currently fail to see any effort to do so) I'm afraid this package can't stay in the archives as is. I believe these problems now justify removal even from the stable distribution, am I right? Well, even if not it currently can't stay in main, so I'm not inclined to maintain it anymore. Thus orphaning seems to be the least to do. Cheers, Flo
