I think nobody does; I hope we'll get rid of the package as soon as
possible with some decent free driver; but as long as there is no
suitable alternative your work is precious even tough, I guess, quite
annoying and uninteresting.

I asked buildd people and they wrote me that it was only a matter of
time, fglrx-driver was just added to the autobuild list (and built for
i386) yesterday, now it's uploaded and waiting to enter the archive.
Just for information, the proper place to find build logs for non-free
packages seems to be http://experimental.debian.net/new and not
http://buildd.debian.org , didn't know this.
You can find detailed information about the status of the package
here: 
http://experimental.debian.net/new/package.php?suite=unstable&p=fglrx-driver
(they still need to edit the p-a-s file, they know)
I'll close the bug as soon as the package will be on-line.

Until now I've been just a debian user, but I'm seriously thinking
about starting to collaborate in the maintenance of some package.
Unfortunately, I'm still quite inexperienced; I started reading the
new maintainer's guide, but I really hope that when I'll be ready, we
won't need fglrx to be packaged for Debian anymore.

Luca
