Cool! I was about to ask you to send the conffile patches for review to the list when I noticed you already did more than one year ago, I had completely forgotten. :/ I'll be doing the review during this month, but first I want to take care of some items from my TODO list. I want to apologize though, for what might have seemed me stone walling you on this. I lost a great deal of motivation last year due to Debian itself and due to work, and one consequence was that I dropped the ball on the conffile stuff (among other things), I've had it (and countless of other items) in mind as something to be done, but that's not always enough. thanks, guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
