The patches got neglected probably bcos we don't have an owner for the .NET implementation. Tomas who contributed the initial stuff and Arnaud who did the subsequent stuff are no longer with the project. So there's no owner to actively maintain the code or look at patches and apply them. This situation will probably continue until we manage to find somebody with suitable skills who is willing to champion this effort. > --Rafael > > [1] > https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&mode=hide&pid=12310520&sorter/order=DESC&sorter/field=priority&resolution=-1&component=12311527 > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > Apache Qpid - AMQP Messaging Implementation > Project: http://qpid.apache.org > Use/Interact: mailto:dev-subscr...@qpid.apache.org > > -- Regards, Rajith Attapattu Red Hat http://rajith.2rlabs.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Apache Qpid - AMQP Messaging Implementation Project: http://qpid.apache.org Use/Interact: mailto:dev-subscr...@qpid.apache.org
