IIRC, you talk about #602865, that we have shared some mails with RT and
i've released 1.4.2-3 just after your 1.4.2-2 upload.
Anyway, i lacked time and this was a good thing to take over the close
of the bug.

I absolutely agree to move from SVN to Git. You already have asking this
a few month ago and I started to study how to migrate but did not take
time to do it really on the official repo. If you have plan to do it,
don't hesitate.

You can do this job, i have some lag in my other package too (but don't
have a team to take over work). I've started to work on new 1.5.2
version a few weeks ago. You can review my work on:

http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/php-net-smtp/

Don't forget to change the maintainer adress to
pkg-php-pear at lists.alioth.debian.org as Ondrej suggested ;)


My general problem is lack of time for php related packages; i maybe
should review my position in the pkg-php team to avoid other lag in the
future.


Thanks in advance and sorry for the delay.
