That's fair ;-) Also, I just realised that I've collaborated with some Debian Science Team members before, and have reached out to them. 'should have investigated that avenue before requesting an NMU. Maybe it's obvious, but perhaps the developer's reference and wiki/PackageSalvaging would benefit the addition of "Things to do before NMUing…for a team maintained package, try to find someone you know on the team to do a Team Upload (link to page that has Team IRC channels, and suggest examining Team members list on Salsa). It's a trivial bit of work I'd be happy to do... Thanks again! Nicholas
