Hello Soren and Thomas,
thank you very much for your feedback and kind words. Even this is 
somehow helpful for me and my mood.

In my understanding the DPT would take over the package but only if the 
current maintainer says OK to it.
Anyway.

The maintainer is not inactive but only not responsive. I think I need 
to live with it. I need to monitor the situation even further.

I also think that upstream maintainers shouldn't do Debian maintenance 
also. An upstream maintainer is IMHO not objective enough.
But I also know this is not reality today. I can speak only for myself I 
shouldn't do both jobs. To risky to introduce or break things by 
accident.

Regards,
Christian Buhtz
