Chill!!! I didn't mean to upset you in any way - the only reason for suggesting fresh changelog is that there is no history in Debian.

My intentions are sound, I simply wanted to avoid using a sponsor and fully expected my DD application to complete very soon. It so happens that one of my other packages containing a new upstream release is still stuck waiting for the sponsor to get around to uploading. There is no way I wanted to repeat that experience. The real problem is the NM process. You just wait and wait and wait and wait. I am not alone here, many people just give up and go elsewhere but I strongly believe in Debian.
