Hello Gary,
may be writing this kind of mails in summer time is not the best idea
since it might get lost in vacation stack of work. So I try again
summarising that the current maintainer of TRF Yozen Hernandez stated[1]
that he agrees with the reasoning to Open Source TRF but has no final
say about it. Yozen said that you might be able to decide but we did
not got any response of yours to this topic. It would be really great
to hear your opinion about the reasons we gave to Open Source TRF and if
you have some interest it would be nice to give it soonish since Debian
will go into freeze for the next stable release in the not to distant
future.
I admit I feel a bit bad when simply beeing ignored.
Thanks for considering
Andreas.
