Quote: sorry for the long wait. It took some time to fix all problems and synchronize efforts within Vector. Unfortunately, we do not have a plan for community contributions in the short/midterm. This might change in the future, we (the SIL Kit team) just cannot say when it will be happening. For now, we have made the decision to post pone our efforts to package SIL Kit within the Debian archive. Instead, we will shift development completely to the public Github repo and try to grow the community with the goal to accept patches in the future. I think the best is to close this ITP and revisit it once this is not oly stamped wit a Open Source license, but also living the principles of FOSS.

One of the design goals of SIL Kit is to easily connect different third-party tools, such as emulators (such as QEMU), virtual machines and simulation tools. The goal of having this package within the Debian Package ecosystem is to provide users of SIL Kit an easy and unified way of installing and updating their installation of SIL Kit. > > We (Vector Informatik GmbH) would offer to package and maintain SIL Kit (libsilkit4).
