I was going to bring the package to current policy standards anyway;
thanks for doing it for me..  :-)

As for cdbs, I never used it but I guess this is a good opportunity to
learn...

Thanks.

My pleasure!  I had considered offering to take over the package some
weeks ago (around the time I took wmclock over) but it seemed pretty
well maintained, so I didn't.  I've been using wmifs for years, I
wouldn't like to see it disappear from the archive.

I'll probably do just that, yes.

Thanks for your reply,
