Well. That's part of the problem. The version you refer to is Peter's, not upstream's [1], with the latter having newer releases until very recently. >> Arno, Laurent: are either or both of you willing to take over the package as >> maintainers?

If someone wants to take the package I am happy to let others step in. Having that said, I'd take the package together with bigon and bring it in shape based on upstream's code base - and in cooperation with Simon, the upstream author. > On the other hand, why it's important to keep this package? People - including me - use it. Also thanks to the members of the tech-ctte to find the right words even without formal vote.
