Well, it has become more and more obvious that NEW processing is not
something to reliably wait for, as the pile of packages waiting in NEW
is slowly increasing and even fairly trivial and obviously free software
licensed packages has been waiting for a review for months.

Just for completeness sake, there seem to be a cluster of three issues
https://bugs.debian.org/999485, https://bugs.debian.org/1084224 and
https://bugs.debian.org/1064072, related to this firmware blob.  Perhaps
these should be merged and placed under one package, with affects to the
others?  Not sure where it best belong.

Happy hacking
