While it's nice that you've prepared a package for the new mlocate upstream version, getting it done after the freeze is simply far too late. Also, for packages that haven't been updated in a very long time (two years in this case), a much better bet for a productive exchange is to get it in front of -mentors instead of just the (possibly mia) maintainer.
