just wanted to point to wv which seems to do a much better
job than catdoc, and also operates from a script if desired.
Apparently only the GUI is missing.

Hi,

   I am no longer interested in maintaining the 'catdoc' package.  However, I
   will continue my current level of inactive ownership of the package until
   such time as someone takes it over.
  I'd like to adopt this package.

Oops, I already adopted the package on 24th Dec. Sorry, but I did not know
that anybody else was interested in adopting it. It had announced my ITA a
day before.

Cheers,
Guenter

Actually, wv is a command line only program, although it is now
available as a library as well.  Look for my request-to-adopt soon.

yes, I saw that is already mentioned in 'unstable' when you
search for available packages on www.debian.org. Don't know
who was listed as maintainer, though.

What happend was the maintainer of wordview, as the package used to be
called, hasn't updated it in 13 months.  Since then, it has gone
through a total overhaul, now works a a library, and has a new
maintainer.  the most recent version in unstable is called wv, and was
an NMU.

So, it seems that I will maintain catdoc, not you? Am I right?
