Ok, then I think a RFA would probably be sensible. > Would you (Junichi and/or Helge) be interested in taking over > maintenance of advi ? be aware that this will require, for the reasons > outlined above, require some skills in the OCaml language. No, I'm not considering taking over advi. At that time I reported the bug I was experimenting with advi and in that course reported the bug. I haven't worked with advi ever since and do not see me working with it in the (near) future. Maybe before RFA'ing this bug you could consider handing it forward to upstream (if that is possible, from the replies I gather this might not be feasible).
