Dear Ean,
It's now more than a week that you sent this mail where you said *you*
must upload the new kaffe package.
I did propose a mailing list to be the maintainer (this one) I did
propose this project to be the maintainer and add a cvs repository to
this project to handle kaffe. You did not agree and I told you I don't
care... I just want kaffe to be more 'actively' maintained.
Please Ean, can you subscribe to the list or set up a email to be the
kaffe maintainer? Can you upload a new kaffe package with the new
maintainer and you and me (and maybe others as you want) as
uploaders. Can you fix the copyright problem? Can you apply the patches
Dalibor points you to try to fix the buildd's?
If you really do not want to work with pkg-java-kaffe, can you set up a
new list? If you really do not want to work with pkg-java Alioth
project, can you set up a new one?
Many thanks for your attention, time and collaboration,
Respects,
=2D- Arnaud.
