Comment 11 for bug 596676

I have prepared a backport for Lucid about two months ago [1] and getting a working package is just a matter of running git-buildpackage on the checkout of that branch. I have prepared that fix to help MiGri get this fix into his distro, but I can't do anything beyond that as I'm not affiliated with Ubuntu in any way except for being the downstream maintainer for this particular package it makes available.

It occurs to me that crying out "Please update ejabberd asap for lucid!" simply won't work for an unmaintained package, so there should be some other way to push the fix. Is there anything resembling the Debian's "debian-devel" mailing list to raise this question there?
