Hi Marc,

please excuse my late reply. 

I am very happy to see that porting is going on on new volunteered projects.

Now I am interested if your patches went into the openZIM trunk. Then I would 
like to see a package from you which we can put on our download page for 
other users.

Are you interested to work on that with us? If so I suggest to you to sign up 
for our developers meeting:
http://openzim.org/Developer_Meetings/2009-2

The vote for the best date is still open:

Greets,



Manuel
