It does not matter, who "physically" uploads the package e.g. sponsors it. In this case you are the author of changes. I would upload it into, for example, 14-DAY queue, if: 1) you will continue to maintain it; 2) original maintainer will not react. 3) the package technically be OK. >> I was thinking, you want to (co-)maintain the package (CC-ing >> original maintainer again). > > > I do consider doing so, but so far I have not even managed to get > anything uploaded at all. (no offense) I usually upload the package, even there are some minor problems, which would be good to fix. But from my point of view, the current status of the package is not enough good to be uploaded in Debian. Please, fix "patch-issues". Patch should be minimal and clear. if you do not understand, what the patch does - just remove it and check the package functionality. I pointed already the problems with .badpixels and gpg_key file. Also it is very important to decide, whether you want to (co)-maintain the package. If not - who will fix the possible problems after the uploading of new version? @Steve, please, clarify, whether you want to maintain the package further.
