I just found it and on first glance it looks great. It looks like a very
nice editor. Also provided is a small tool to show some information about
the system named xproc.
If anyone else is interested I would give him the links but if noone is I
will package it as time permits.

I found more than GXedit. There is a nice task timer available named gtimer.
I might package that one too. Also there is a GTK mp3 player named replay.
It is GPLed but based on amp. I wonder if this is correct. Anyway, since I
seldom play MP3s I let this to someone else.

People,
The fact that there even exist two debian versions of mutt should tell
you that it was an issue for people. Looking through the changelogs, I
see that mutt was moved to non-US in Feb. 1997:
mutt (0.61.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
* Now non-US. (Bug #7257)
