Of course. ttxtsubs hasn't been updated for 4 years. I'll try to get an OK
from Ragnar, but will meanwhile create the project.

Would be nice if you could do this and maybe a short summarization of
some important changes.

much :-) As long as the original author officially released the project
(like it was done with OSDTeletext) I would definitly prefer to keep the
name. If there would be really a fork, so that there were two different
actively maintained development branches, then I would surely follow your
suggestion.
