Hi guys;

I have been, rather reluctantly, maintaining the Dmake thing we inherited from SUN in Apache Extras.

I am glad to announce that a new maintainer stepped in (see below) and has already made a great job transferring the *complete* history in a github repository here:

https://github.com/mohawk2/dmake/

Despite some promising attempts to drop it, AOO still depends on this package for building and it's great to have someone taking care of it. I am sure Ed will do a great job with Dmake but of course, if for some reason we need it, the older tarball will remain in the Apache Extras repository.

Welcome Ed !

Pedro.

*Subject:* dmake - still maintaining?
Hi Pedro,
I am interested in taking over development of dmake just to fix up a couple of little bugs, mainly so it can be installed and used in a directory with a space in the name. I’d also want to put the code on github (although I see there is already a repo on https://github.com/Distrotech/dmake).
Is that something you would be comfortable with?
Best regards,
Ed J
Gimp-Perl maintainer
