As this is the most recent bug report I'll post my thoughts here. I'm willing to help with (or perhaps take over) the maintaining of the fvwm package. Of course, I don't want to nor am I trying to hijack Manoj's work. I have contacted the current maintainer (Manoj Srivastava) and see if we can work something out. Below was my message to Manoj. I'll keep this bug updated if I receive any reply (or after two weeks if I don't receive any reply).
-------------------------- Hello Manoj, I would like to know whether you are still interested in maintaining the fvwm package, seeing as your last upload was on Jun 8, 2010. I am not trying to hijack your package or steal your work, but only asking if you need any help. From the looks of bugs #681255, #623194, and #684395, many people, including myself, wants to see newer versions of fvwm included in Debian. If you need help with maintaining the package, I am willing to offer what I can. I can be your co-maintainer or the sole maintainer, if you no longer want to deal with the work. I have uploaded the newer version on https://mentors.debian.net/package/fvwm, and it is also what I have been using for the past few months. You are still marked as the maintainer, copyright and changelog both remain the same (other than some formatting changes), and files are mostly in the same places (example configurations are now under /usr/share/doc/fvwm/examples/). By the way, thank you for all the work you've put into maintaining this packaging. Building the package myself made me realize how much you've done for all the FVWM users.
