We have a lot of resources to help with that:
+1 We did try to communicate with the contacts we had back then but failed to get any response, so we gave up. It wasn’t Digium as a company, it was us all working with the project. We did not understand the code and could not maintain it. I would be very happy to see the repeater code coming back to the tree and staying up to date in the tree , but that will, as Matt points out, require active maintainers. Regards, /Olle
