>From what I'm seeing, you are trying to drop GGZ only because it's
unmaintained upstream. But do we have any issue with the code base as
is, or is it just to prevent future issues? Do you have any replacement
implementations? I discussed the issue with my upstream, and they
agree that GGZ should be reimplemented, but they don't know any
replacement code. They also feel that shipping without multi-player
would be a pitty.

So, actually, I need more information before dropping GGZ from my
package.
