Ah, so this makes it easier for me. Will fix the versioning in the next
upload.

I have that patch already included in 1.6.0-1. :-) So the gain of you
releasing a 1.6.2 with that patch is that it becomes more obvious that
this patch is already included in the Debian package (assuming I fix the
versioning as I intend to do). Having said that I think it's only
sensible to release 1.6.2 if 1.7.0 will take some time. Unless 1.7.0 is
utterly broken I'd prefer to package that instead of 1.6.2.

Sounds similar to the WwwStream patch. I didn't notice a breakage
though.

That's understandable, I don't like writing documentation either :-) I
think I'm of no good help here, as I don't follow the development
closely and would rather consume instead of produce a release note.
Best regards
