Bug Description
The page of the Tor package [0] shows Mr. Peter Palfrader [1] as Tor's package maintainer. I've contacted him personally thru IRC and he said me that he is not the package maintainer, that he is not involved with Ubuntu and he has not a account in Launcpad.
He asked me to contact LP team to inform the existance of this 'fake' information and he asks to have his name dropped from the LP since he is not involved at all.
Please, check out this issue and let another MOTU taking care of these package. THere is another stable version released and Dapper still have the older version, so there is work to be made.
Sorry for my bad english. If you need any further data, please, just ask.

Hi gentlemen,
What is missing for this bug being fixed ? How the name of Peter Palfrader just appeared in Launchpad ?
