No. > IIRC, there's been no upstream development in some time. There is Tom Van Braeckel who seems doing maintenance work, apply submitted patches and streamling stuff. See http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~wicd-devel/wicd/experimental/changes/ and the mailing list at https://sourceforge.net/p/wicd/mailman/wicd-devel/. Nevertheless we -- on Debian Unstable -- are (togther with Arch and maybe Gentoo) those who are exposed to new incompatibilites first (I don't know what OS Tom uses, but I don't expect it to be Debian Unstable), so we likely have to come up with patches then and when as it happened in the past, mostly with pyuthon-urwid. But there is someone again who imports them into and cares about upstream. (This is _not_ meant as offense to David. I guess, we're all glad, he started wicd in the beginning. :-) Regards, Axel -- ,''`. | Axel Beckert <a...@debian.org>, http://people.debian.org/~abe/ : :' : | Debian Developer, ftp.ch.debian.org Admin `. `' | 4096R: 2517 B724 C5F6 CA99 5329 6E61 2FF9 CD59 6126 16B5 `- | 1024D: F067 EA27 26B9 C3FC 1486 202E C09E 1D89 9593 0EDE
