I'm not terribly happy with this arrangement.  Is there any ETA when
xmule will be introduced into Debian again?  At the moment, all
outstanding bugs of xmule do not have a maintainer and therefore show
up on my bug page (aka as unknown-packages)... the problem is that
it clutters the page of bugs without a maintainer and so it makes it
harder for me to keep track and reassign bugs.

Keeping those bugs around for a while is okay but I wouldn't want to
do it for months.  So, any idea when xmule will be back?
