On copyright and licenses you seem to need a sponsor. Other than that it is possible that you are doing excellent work on the package rkward. I suggest to upload 1:0.5.7-3 with the fix for bug 689982 to unstable and to ask debian-release for an unblock. A different approach could be to agree with debian-release to upload 0.5.7-3 with the fix for bug 689982 to testing-proposed-updates.
