Dear Zajac,

There are new versions of the packages: GDAL 1.2.6 and GRASS 6.0.0. I use these packages regularly and my future packages will heavily depend on them. So I would like to maintain them if you don't mind. My .info files are in experimental tree of CVS (experimental/babayoshihiko/finkinfo). The changes, other than simply upgrading the versions, are:

Uses "Type" field to create variants. For example, gdal-nopgsql compiles
without PostgreSQL support.
postgresql80 is preferred as PostGIS is included only in this version of
PostgresSQL package.
GRASS has no LAPACK/BLAS support because no module uses them in 6.0.
Have -ssl variants

I sent you an email a few days ago, but I don't think I have received any reply.

Thank you.

Dear BABA,

I apologize for not responding sooner.

I'm glad that you offered to take over maintaining these packages, I haven't had the time to work on them and I no longer work with these tools. Feel free to take them over. Please change the Maintainer field at your earliest convinence.

I'm going to forward you all the existing emails I have from other people regarding these packages, so you can take their requests into account.

BTW, one of the things that would be nice to see is Python support added, with variant support for Python 2.3 and Python 2.4.

Regards,
Blair
