fq_codel seems to be a good replacement, thanks for the suggestion.

However I decided to try the upstream version of wondershaper and to my 
surprise it worked perfectly. I then attempted to contact the Debian 
maintainer about upgrading the package but my email sadly bounced back.

I am interested in getting the latest version of wondershaper into the 
Debian repos. If the current maintainer is unreachable do you have any 
ideas on how to proceed?
