Oh, i see. Thanks Joerg. > The backlog in NEW is more from some timing problems I had. Do you consider in backlog, packages like mozilla-firefox-adblock? If yes, couldn't us add in the NEW queue page[0] a status (or notes) column? I'm sure you know better than me if it will be useful to inform the maintainer that you're investigating about licensing issues or something like that.
