Hi James,

Thanks for the reminder! I've fixed up the packaging to work with the 
current upstream release 2.1.3 and uploaded it, and I've filed an unblock 
request, bug #863287, to see if the release team is willing to get it into 
Stretch. I'll also try to get it into backports, either way.

Joss, I missed your reply before 2.1.3+dfsg-1 was tagged/uploaded but I 
added myself to Uploaders, and I can remove you from Maintainers in the 
next release. (I left the job where we were using SQL Server, but I'm able 
to test against SQL Server for Linux, because apparently we live in a 
world where Microsoft hosts an apt server and builds Debian packages with 
systemd unit files.) Thanks for all your past work on the package!
