The bug is http://bugs.debian.org/353275, it was opened Feb 16th 2006 (i.e.
a year ago) and haven't been touched by the maintainer since. I uploaded a
patch to this bug but am not sure if I updated the "Patch" tag correctly (I
just sent an empty "Tag: patch" message to that bug's address).

The other documentation bug is http://bugs.debian.org/376828 which was
opened 6 months ago.

If the maintainer doesn't pick it up, either mention on debian-devel

I'll try to do the later.

Thanks for everyone who answered my query.
