hi,

I have not continue to maintain gcbttv due to configuration tools of mandrake etc. If you think it is still necessary I can maintain it.

It might be a good idea to at least keep an eye on it.
The Brooktree devices are useful V4L and other video capture and TV programs.

I haven't noticed any configuration tools (GUI type) in Ubuntu, which is why I submitted it.

If the bugs have been removed, then there may not be much work that needs to be done.
You can always start a team on Ubuntu Launchpads PPA webspace (free).

Not packaged, so too early to request a backport.
