Dapper and Edgy weren't done by Jonathan yet because the version was
significantly older and Jonathan had some concerns about automatic
upgrades. He said that there was more work to do for them, but I don't
know details.

Jonathan, any idea about the packages in -backports?

That said, if the package in -backports is known to work (or, if
Brian's patch applied to it does), it should be moved to -proposed,
and finally to -updates.
