There are a few packages that lack owners. The most notable may be m4. Chuck and I exchanged some private email about this last week. Anyone up for maintaining m4?
Hmm despite the apparent lack of upstream development on this one - m4 is pretty rock solid (compared to astyle at least) ... I'll have a deeper look to see if I'm willing to offer on this one.
Well, actually Gary V. Vaughan has been working hard on m4 all summer. If you grab CVS
cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/m4 login anonymous <hit enter for password> cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/m4 co m4
you'll see that the whole thing has been modularized with plugins. I sent Gary some patches last week and he incorporated them, but there are still a number of issues with building it cleanly on cygwin.
Most of these are probably not m4's fault, but are shortcomings in the libtool (or libltdl) implementation on cygwin. I haven't tried to rebuild in about a week, so things may have changed in the meantime.
If anyone is interested, I can post my build recipe and notes...
