Thanks -- I'm uploading a NMU now with debdiff below. It would be nice to have gnunet in Debian, and I believe that having a less-than-ideal package remain in testing is more likely to attract volunters to maintain it in Debian than if it would be removed, but I understand if you want to remove it to reduce the responsibility for it. Isn't there a Debian QA group packages can be assigned to if a maintainer wants to let go? I don't remember, and I have been in your situation as well with with some packages so I know the feeling.
