As I have said, proposed changes were pretty controversial, and I was in fact not sure whether I really wanted them in my port. I *was* working on it, albeit rather time-sparsely, exchanged a few emails with submitter. I can tolerate "maintainer timeout" for really inactive committer, but not for someone doing commits and being active in the lists. I'll go and shut up now, telling myself to take care of my ports faster next time. :-) ./danfe _______________________________________________ cvs-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
