I'm sorry for my mistake. The person to blame is Christopher Baines, who
I just added to Cc:. He's the one who said he would maintain factory-boy
in Debian, and didn't do the work.

Christopher, if you intend to maintain factory-boy in Debian, please do
act quickly, otherwise, we'll ask for its removal.

Sorry for this, my bad: wrong person.
