The "upstream" is the Debian package maintainers.

     Joerg Jaspert
     Eduard Bloch
     Steve McIntyre

Here is the relevant information from

  <http://packages.debian.ORG/changelogs/pool/main/c/cdrkit/cdrkit_1.1.11-2/copyright>

QUOTE

  This package was first debianized by Erik Andersen andersee@debian.org.
  The current Debian maintainer is Joerg Jaspert <joerg@debian.org>.
  Co-maintainers: Eduard Bloch <blade@debian.org>,
  Steve McIntyre <93sam@debian.org>

  It is available as free download on
  <https://alioth.debian.org/projects/debburn/>.

  The package contains parts of zisofs-tools, downloaded from
  <ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/fs/zisofs/>.

  Upstream maintainers:
  The upstream author of zisofs-tools is H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>.
  The rest is maintained by the Debian maintainers; see above.

  Other authors:
  Joerg Schilling <schilling@fokus.fraunhofer.de>, Eric Youngdale and many
  others.

  Names of relevant binary program(s) and copyright info have been adapted to
  avoid the violation of the GPL license (as offered by Joerg Schilling) and the
  obligations created by German laws.

UNQUOTE

As it takes some Debian developers all their time just to maintain
their packages, so I seriously doubt whether these Debian developers
are doing or have done any significant new development on the software
over the years since the fork.

cdrkit currently has 19 bugs (out of a total of 99), the oldest dated 
December 12th, 2011 which have not even been "classified" (initial sorting
and response) by the cdrkit maintainers.

Surely this indicates a lack of activity in keeping the package
well maintained.
