It looks like this case is covered by adding the appropriate flag to the bug report subject line, [ITA] in this case.

I missed the recent release of 2.0 final, I will package that up this week and look again for a sponsor for that.

RFR: pentobi
I sent this email to the debian-devel-games mailing list yesterday and realised today this is probably the more appropriate list for a package review. Hi, I am looking for a review of my packaging efforts for pentobi, a clone of the strategy board game Blokus. It is my first project to package and it will also be the first time pentobi is in Debian so it will be going through the NEW queue. The package is based on 1.0 release candidate 1 which upstream plans to have out for 1-2 weeks for testing then will release 1.0 final. I would like to have any of my packaging mistakes/oversights found and corrected so the package is ready for a sponsor when 1.0 final is released. It has been uploaded to mentors.d.n and is available here: http://mentors.debian.net/package/pentobi Or via: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pentobi/pentobi_1.0~b1-1.dsc Thanks, Dean -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
