Hi Bastien, Thanks for clarifying. This seems a bit inconsistent with my experience so I guess that is why I have gotten confused. Exactly when did Alejandro email this list asking to be maintainer? I ask because this module got abandoned in 2011 and I was enquiring about this directly with the accessibility team well before anyone was maintaining this module and heard nothing about it until after the fact.[1,2]
