I better add that I wrote him (a bit later) about the release plan, and that mgetty needs an update and said the following ways (in order of preference): | - You upload a working package | - You appoint me as a co-maintainer and I upload a working package | - I'm doing a NMU with your blessing. | - I'm doing a NMU without your blessing, which I wouldn't like. | - Someone else is doing a NMU with using the patches in the BTS, which | I even like less. (and I said that I would like it even less if there is no updated mgetty in sarge.) He said on 19 August that he'll upload "during the next days" - but nothing has changed.
