A few days ago, we got a sponsor for the package and yesterday it's in
new queue. Today, a few hours before, I received a notification that the
package was granted and moved to Debian ftp-master server.

In short, the package is in unstable repository and may be released
within a few days. Thanks all.

Now I'm preparing for 'needs-packaging' request [3] to Ubuntu project.
We have 10 days to FeatureFreeze[4] for Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenyal Xerus)[5].
