Just for the record, wide-dhcpv6 upstream has not been responsive at all for the
last couple of years.  I would have taken the project over if I had time to do
so.  Feel free to submit patches to the Debian BTS.  I will gladly integrate
them in the Debian package and also forward them upstream, just in case.

Also, if anyone is willing to help on the Debian packaging, I am open to any
proposal.  I have little time to work on this right now.  It would definitely
benefit from more people getting involved.  It is hosted on one of my own
servers but I would probably move that to git.debian.org if someone stepped up.

Cheers,
