Great thanks!

It seems somebody already uploaded it. One question, though: it would
be wise to reflect in the debian/NEWS.debian file the fact that this
release does not (any longer) run a cronjob to test the users's
passwords. This was removed in 1.6-40.1 (not your fault actually) and
is a functionality loss which might surprise some admins upgrading to
lenny.

Should I draft a NEWS.Debian?

It would be nice if somebody also tested upgrades from previous
releases (with local changes to the .conf file or with no changes) to
see how it behaves.

Regards
