Well put. :) Currently on my list is the renaming (policyd in the packages to policyd-cluebringer) to make things much simpler for packaging. I spent 3 weeks on this during Aug-Sept and am around the point of working out the final .deb and .rpm version replacements and testing them out. Once this is done, v2.1 needs the email vs. recipient counters sorted out. Effort is totally driven by sponsors of the project, it seems there has been a decreasing number of entities wanting new features which are able to financially back them. At present I have some sponsors in place that will easily keep the project going for the next 10 years. As for new features and further reasearch (like the milter interface), I'm always looking for sponsors. Another thing I've discovered from talking to companies is the project is very hard to donate to ... so what I have on the cards is a kickstarter-type/fundraising project site, which will have options as low as $1, including recurring options and various types of ideas and projects which people can also request be put up that can be contributed to. -N DO NOT send email to this address: nkukardb11...@lbsd.net
