They are actively refusing to discuss with me about it. I have noted that their salsa repository predates mine, but I don't see that as a reason to why upload on top of my perfectly fine package just to change the maintainer field and introduce more lintian warnings.

One of the main purposes of an ITP is to serve as a mutex. Somebody 
uploading a package without even filing an ITP is the losing side.

That said, if mentors disallowed uploads of the same package name by 
different accounts it would be a much more clear situation.
