I did not know that one of my packages is being used as an example in a
packaging guide. And I am even more surprised that a fix is presented there
and it has not been reported to me before yet, or am I?

I do agree with the article, though, this is a minor issue.  In particular
since you can easily find the homepage by looking at the copyright.

but I will not change the maintainer, that should probaby not have been part
of the patch? Unless you would like to take over maintainership of the package?
There few more minor things to update according to lintian.
