Release team have been a bit reluctant to unblock whole new versions
without any justification at all

In this case though, maybe they can accept that there was a good reason
why it wasn't in testing before the freeze:

a) 0.9.1 was tagged 5 August

b) I sent a private email to Palli on 14 August about the bug and
uploading 0.9.1

c) sent follow up and commented on the bug tracker 29 September
        https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=763378#10

d) noticed Palli's email bouncing on 3 November, you then made the
upload immediately, also removing some jquery artifacts to make it more
dfsg compliant

e) syslog-nagios-bridge is the only dependent package that I know of and
I have been testing that against pynag v0.9.1 locally.  Do you know of
any other packages using pynag as a dependency?

It appears that a range of issues were fixed upstream in 0.9.0 and 0.9.1
- do you know if any of these issues justify an unblock for 0.9.1 or
maybe the collection of all these issues together justifies an unblock?
