This is very good news.  I was planning to start the process to hijack
the sourceforge project because we got no reply to the mails sent to
your addresses listed there and in the project source files.  I'm glad
I tried google to find your latest address first. :)

There are two of us interested in maintaining this package in debian,
Michael Potter and me.  Would you be intersted in sharing the CVS with
us, so we could maintain the package together using sourceforge?

I found patches in the SuSe package to get gutenbrowser version
0.6.8.3 to compile and run with Qt 3.  Do you want these?

I also have a few minor patches to avoid a crash when running with an
empty list of books and to initialize a variable to keep valgrind
quiet.  Do you want these as well?

I'm going to upload a version right now to get the package into the
NEW queue.  This will close this bug, so I guess we should drop
278978@bugs.debian.org from future discussions.
