Ethan wants to become upstream; why, I'm not exactly sure.

He asked me to ask for him; he sometimes has trouble phrasing requests in a people-friendly manner. > So why not replace it first with your packaged version, then?

I'm not sure what you mean by "my" packaged version; The only thing I've done so far is to tar up the current CVS versions and send them to Ethan (despite the fact he could have done this himself). I did include the German translation; there weren't any others I saw.
