Hey Reinhard,
I'm not currently actively working on it, no. But it's mostly ready to go (I
think, anyway. I have had another friend give some feeback) -
https://salsa.debian.org/reedy/ustreamer
I'm currently waiting on the next release of ustreamer, as it brings in a
couple of changes I upstreamed; fixing some typos and adding a manpage (both of
which the Debian packaging scripts flag in different ways), rather than just
having them exist in the Debian packaging repo -
https://github.com/pikvm/ustreamer/commits?author=reedy
I have just filed https://github.com/pikvm/ustreamer/issues/74 to ask when that
might be.
Thanks though for the offer. Please feel free to look over my packaging repo
and let me know if you've got feedback.
