It's group maintained by a large number of people, the GNOME
maintainers, though the mailinglist isn't at the 'maintainer' field, so
they don't recieve the mails sent to bugs on this gnome-db2 package.

Gnome maintainers, how are things going with this package? I agree with
Cesar it doesn't look too well, and as it is now, it isn't ready to be
included in Sarge (indeed, it's in sid only).

Are you as a team still interested in this package? If not, you should
indeed consider asking for adoption of it.
