Right. I've gotten the tarball and found that Paul Seelig has been maintaining the package upstream for a few versions. Thanks, Paul :) In the meantime, I've found out that Kevin gave away the package to Edward Lang[1], so I'll be doing an upload to fix/update the package (the diff is currently 28Kb :), and set the maintainer field to QA (i.e. orphaned), until Ed does his own upload.
