As I forgot to CC the ITP bug to the list I want to do this now afterwards
and include a question:

The bugreport is http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=531587

After an initial view on the package Charles Plessy suggested to rename the
package to avoid confusion with the existing package "tasks". I have done
this now after getting in touch with the upstream project (actually I
contributed to project). The upstream maintainers are planning to rename the
project in the future to "taskwarrior" and it is OK to use this name already
for the debian package.

So the renamed package is now called taskwarrior and has been uploaded to
mentors.debian.org (together with a RFS to the debain.-mentors
mailiniglist).

To superseed the old upload I increased the version number of the package to
1.7.0-2 while renaming it. I still refer to the original ITP bugreport in
the changelog file and explain why the package was renamed.

Would that be sufficient?

Or should I file a new ITP with the correct packagename or change the
subject of the current ITP bugreport by maling cont...@bugs.ddebian.org with
the retitle command.

Greetings,
Federico "Fredde" Hernandez
