poppler maintenance

Dear gnome team,

we, the Debian teTeX team, have just switched to using libpoppler
instead of the xpdf code included in our upstream sources, and because
of easier (and less) security updates I planned to suggest the same to
the maintainers of pdftohtml and pdftk.

Now I've learned that poppler has just been orphaned
(http://bugs.debian.org/344738) and that the sources are already in the
pkg-gnome svn repository.  Will you maintain the package as a team?

Regards, Frank
