Bug#1093957: ITS: latexila

[Andreas Tille]

Hi Jeremy,

I'm fine with both actions:

  1. Adding you (and anybody else who wants to) to Uploaders of
     the package maintained by the Debian TeX maintainers

  2. You move the package to the GNOME team and add yourself

As far as I understood Hilmar the latter is his prefered solution and
I'm perfectly happy with this.  Since I'm not a member of the GNOME team
I can't do this.  If you might make me a member of the GNOME team I
could finalise the move and upload the package to delayed=10.

Kind regards
    Andreas.
