That's fine. I can fix what's needed for me where upstream has ceased working on it. Until then I can suggest adding syslog filters on their system. I'm not sure there are still repos where I can commit, tho.
However, with all due respect, you don't maintain WeeWx for devs but for the general audience so the "whiney" comment is a bit out of the line, I think. Users will "whine" while not contributing a single line. And that's perfectly fine. Even if "whining" don't lead to anywhere. I can do all the fixes I need without barking around on these forums but I think if this has a viable user side solution for other folks with a similar problem, we can all benefit from seeing the solution here. I'm maintaining a driver now that also will get the v4 treatment. And that's also perfectly OK, since that's my job.
