Evan, what a lame comment!

People have been posting left and right that they rebuilt the packages in their PPA or elsewhere. If there is no immediately obvious candidate at the moment that is only because sponsorship has been dragging on so long without anything ever happening. I'm currently rebuilding RC6 in my PPA (something which I think can be reasonably expected of a sponsorr to do himself, too), please take a look in a few hours. If you didn't feel like doing that you could have searched through the PPAs with https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=freemind and you would have immediately stumbled across Igor Gomes' PPA (https://launchpad.net/~igorgomes/+archive/ppa/+packages) which already has an appropriate package it seems. And if even that would have been too much to ask from a sponsor, then I think a normal comment of "what is the status quo, what is there to do?" would have gotten a quick response, I'm sure.

The single-minded pursuit of "get it off my radar" instead of actually fixing issues and improving Ubuntu isn't helping anyone. In that sense, I kindly ask for a little more effort next time from you, Evan, to make sure you are actually deserving of your newly acquired sponsor powers. Thank you for your contribution.

Resubscribed sponsors.
