Hey Jérémy!

Although there are specific maintainers for ruby libraries maintained
under the pkg-ruby-extras team (and libgpgme-ruby seems to be maintained
by Rudi Cilibrasi <cilibrar at debian.org>), I think that most everyone has
had other team members do work on others' packages, and I suspect that
one should assume a low-threshold NMU policy in general.

It would be better if you joined the team and updated the package via
the subversion repository, it would reduce the work on everyone in
general, however I would completely understand if you didn't feel like
joining yet another team, and its certainly not reasonable to ask that
all users of a package be part of the maintenance team :)
