PTS shows [1] two uploaders of this package. Lincoln de Sousa looks MIA [2],
and Marcelo Jorge Vieira now looks quite busy with a number of other packages.

How about a team upload [3]? In this case you will be able to do more
improvements in the package.

> Would you like some help on the package, globally?

If you are willing to maintain this package in future, you may join Debian
XMPP Maintainers Team [4] and add yourself to uploaders.

Marcelo, have you any comments on this?

Boris
