Can I use this method to sync a package that is in the Debian 'NEW'
queue?  I have two packages that are stuck in NEW waiting for ftp-master
approval and requestsync gives this error for them:

E: 'netxx' doesn't appear to exist in Debian 'sid'

E: 'cajun' doesn't appear to exist in Debian 'sid'

Both of these are available in the VCS:

Vcs-Git: git://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/netxx.git
Vcs-Git: git://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/cajun.git
