I would love to patch it, but like I tried to indicate it would be more
like rewriting.
In my case, choosing another frontend was more viable.
I personally do not know who is using dsgw and for what, I know it has more
capabilities than just resetting a user password.
I would love to contribute, but if nobody is using the functionality, it
would be a bit of a wate of time from my point of view.
Next time I need a change, I will try to contribute.
I saw the last patch was 11 months ago:
https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/389/dsgw.git/ ?
Since your name is on most versions, can you say something about usage and
what parts users would like to see improved?
Thank you!
