Hello,

I am Spiro, the current upstream OpenCBM main developer and a former
VICE developer.

Please use the newest OpenCBM project homepage on GitHub:

https://github.com/OpenCBM

The one on SF is outdated. I am working on keeping both git repositories
in sync, but the github one is the one where development takes place (if
any).

While it might not be a good place to mention it here on the Debian BTS,
I already created DEB packages which can be downloaded on
https://software.opensuse.org//download.html?project=home%3Astrik&package=opencbm
(Devel homepage: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:strik/opencbm)

I tried the best I could do, but I expect it will not comply to the
Debian policies. However, if someone wants to create an official
package, this might be a starting point.

Regards,
Spiro.
