Thanks for your reply. I'm glad that ublock-origin hasn't been simply
forgotten. However I'd like to suggest to implement a strict FIFO queue
because now it is more like FILO. This would automatically reduce
support requests like this one to a minimum because everyone would be
able to watch the progress. I also recommend to prioritize binary-new
packages because they should require less work than completely new ones
since the check for DFSG compliance has already happened once before.
The focus should really be more on conflicting package names or binaries
and I'm sure this could be automated.

Regards,

Markus
