thanks for the calm reply despite my maybe still a little bit heated

I wrote a patch last summer for configuring the caption bar, and sat on it
because I'd assummed the project was dead. 4.0.3 is from 2008, and the only
traffic I saw on this list was one person asking how to change their
background.

This sounds great; I was very impressed with how quick you merged my patch
in last week. I've been using your branch since then and been quite happy
with it.
I'd actually made that patch last summer and sat on it just because the
project seemed totally dead; the releases have been glacial, even by

Hello,
seeing as we came yet again to standstill with new release, I would like
to volunteer myself as GNU Screen maintainer.
Some of you may know that I maintain separate development tree on github
(https://github.com/amade/screen/tree/devel/src) in which I have a more
than 300 changes committed

Well, cool :).
