Thanks Bhavani!

I sponsored the uploads to all releases (lucid, maverick, natty, oneiric), since it was actually 20111113-1 in the patches; this is still pending approval from the SRU team, though. :)

Bhavani, since you're already MOTU and you're also the maintainer for that package in Debian, I'd invite you to apply for per-package upload rights for this package, if you want to do these updates yourself.

FWIW; we've been kind of lax for a bit with updating m-b-p-i, as such I consider this upload to absolutely satisfy the "significant changes" clause in the SRU exception (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#mobile-broadband-provider-info). I think we can do better on this side and try to upload an SRU for m-b-p-i once every three months or so, or at least somewhat in sync with point releases in the future? Provider details change all the time, so users would definitely benefit from it.
