Hi Joel,

do you still intend to adopt this package? To me, it rather looks as a
candidate for removal - are you actively using it?

As soon as men decide that all means are permitted to fight an
evil, then their good becomes indistinguishable from the evil
that they set out to destroy.

Hi Joel,

Do you still use this package? It is one of the oldest orphaned packages
in Debian, and is a very good candidate for removal.

Aren't there newer alternatives?
