If I'm reading this discussion right, you expect someone else to apply the attached patches and then assume responsibility for the entire package since you're unwilling maintain it if it has any more patches?That seems a bit extreme, but I will take a look at doing so when I find some time.
Do you consider joining the ghostscript team? That'd be great!
It looks like the release team won't be accepting the version in experimental due to the rather large diff.
One way to find out is by asking them.My plan is to ask when I have a package that works - i.e. fix bug#575798 (and disable FAPI again, to closer match earlier release). But since your plan is different, I suggest you ask _now_, before you spend time on keeping the massively patched old release, if the release team might consider approving the newer release wich includes upstream maintainance of those same patches.
