Btw, notice that the Debian NEW queue is roughly two month long at this time. I don't think it's a good idea to wait that long as it could mean Gnote misses the release window. I suggest you guys run your own review on it.
You might also want to check the Debian ITP (http://bugs.debian.org/523093) for Gnote. Joseph brought up his concerns about the copyright/licensing of Gnote, which have been TTBOMK clarified in that log. Anyway, for those too lazy to check, it can be summarised as:
- Gnote relicensed the original code to GPL (permitted by section 13 of LGPL).
- Original code was missing copyright/license statements in most files; for those that had it, it has been preserved, for the rest, a new copyright/license statement has been added.
