It would be nice to have the nvidia drivers current. I was recently asked by the reporter of 216574,which is blocked by the former, to look at these. Also, is nvidia-driver something that you want to maintain, or should x11@ take up maintainership? I am not asking to take it away if you'd like to keep up the maintenance, just offering to take the burden if you'd rather not carry it since I know you have many other ports to maintain.
