I'd like to offer these three packages for adoption: x-symbol, xmix,

x-symbol is probably the most used of these and needs someone who

The others could probably disappear without anyone notic

I'm preparing the new version of amaya. (I believe it's ready except
for this one final detail.)
The version I'm releasing is amaya_1.1c-1, it is going into the "web"
section of hamm (main distribution).
I want it to be an upgrade path for the following:
amaya-static_0.95-1

The source package "xtar" and resultant binary packages "xtar-smotif"

Ok, I'll concede this on the atomic and error handling points. I

Too many people have tried this ;-) Try SCTP, a recent attempt to deal
with the "reliable UDP" solution:
The 2.5.50 kernel has a SCTP implementation. Dunno how
d the setkey program from iputils to do IPSEC. Both
of these (and the library) need headers from a recent kernel source
tree.
I've attached my changes to get racoon to compile, in case you're
interested. Mostly tweaks because our glibc has functions that
the source doesn't think __l
in that directory. You will have to
switch fonts depending on what locale you are using. The
command:
locale -ck code_set_name charmap
can tell you what charset you need to use.
