I think you are referring to me. On the Gentoo forum I am known as SteveB. I am the one who created the DSPAM Gentoo ebuild as it is known and used today. Just last week I submitted around 11 or 12 patches to the Gentoo Bugzilla. > so it would be > very good for project if some of them would join if there will be a new > project based dspam. > Be sure that everyone using DSPAM and capable of coding or doing other thins for DSPAM and some spare time will work on and for a forked DSPAM. Gentoo as community based Linux distro will sure be on board. I don't mean just me.
