On the release team side, we're not exactly sure what could break, or
how badly, if we were to try and publish Bookworm with this packageā€¦

Therefore, I've just uploaded an NMU, splitting the Maintainer field
into Maintainer + Uploaders, picking developers in order.

Source debdiff attached.


By the way, the declared VCS isn't up-to-date, and lacks tags for recent
uploads (last tag is debian/0.6.6-2, testing and unstable have 0.6.8-1
instead).


Cheers,
