Well, my maintenance has mostly been limited to making the stable uploads,
and that was actually my reason for joining the team in the first place.

However, I'm going to take this action. I think the suggestion of the
epoch in unstable was a good one anyway, and in any case we'll have more
time to sort out the situation in unstable - we don't have that time for
the point release now, so resolving this takes precedence for me.

It's a pity none of the people involved spotted it, including myself, but
that's done now.


Cheers,
Thijs
