Hi Thorsten,
Sorry for the direct contact. I just wanted to let you know that the
Copyright issue was solved upstream and we uploaded again the package
one week ago [1].
It is sitting in the NEW queue and I would very much appreciate if you
have some time to look at it
Thank you!
Best regards,
Lluís Campos
