I've caught up on all of this now. I'm not sure I quite understand
the position of the current lilo maintainers. In

it has pretty much been determined that kernel sizes have crossed the

William, to what are you referring ? Can you provide a bug number ?
William and Matt: Can you confirm that you still intend to remove lilo
from squeeze ?
Do we have another person who wants to maintain lilo in Debian ?
I think that if we do, and the current maintainers want to remove it,
we should give the package to the maintainers who do not want to
remove it.
Ian.
