You are still ok, aren't you? It's rather that kind of arrogance of a minority of users/lobbyists/some persons, who try to enforce support of old software for obscure reasons. You are free to maintain it outside the debian archives, if your time does permit it. Just yelling that somebody (i.e. Debian) should do it is so easy ... There's hardly any current distribution which still ships 2.95, so I'm unsure where you will go to. Matthias -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
