Hi Andrey,

I'm a little worried that my email asking you to do a few things for the
pending mpdscribble upload put you off instead of motivate you to fix
the little bits... If, for example, you currently lack the time to look
into those things, I'm happy to do them myself - team maintenance, after
all.

The maintainer sets it to 'unstable' when he thinks he's done; the
sponsor uploads the package unchanged or reverts it to UNRELEASED and
adds TODO items to the top of debian/changelog if there are things that
should be fixed.

To illustrate, I'll do that for mpdscribble just now.

Florian
