Could be. Getting the tags migrated was not straight forward. I hoped it was correct, but did not verify it. The age of the Debian and upstream repo sound correct. There was no active upstream for many years, and eventually the Debian and SuSe maintainers put our heads together and created this upstream group. > To get patches, do you prefer them coming over the mailing list? Given that I do not really expect to have time to process many patches, I am not sure my preferences should matter much. I would prefer the mailing list or the ticket tracking system to avoid forgetting the patch. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
