Just a little background info:
1. I don't work for Sensory Networks, they've merely acquired the
project
2. The project was originally acquired under my belief that
development would continue. I have no control over what is happening
(or not happening) now, but I will shoot an email to the right people
to see what's up, and try to facilitate someone stepping in as
maintainer.
3. I am presently unable to do anything with the project, but once
certain stipulations expire, I will certainly consider forking it or
picking it back up again (it is still GPL after all).
4. If you can't wait that long, the last release of dspam was still
GPL, and therefore there's nothing stopping anyone else from doing the
same. There's no reason someone couldn't set up their own CVS / SVN
repository and apply patches, or fork the project entirely, in
accordance with the GPL.
I must say I am very disappointed that nothing has happened with the
project since the announcement, and will try to facilitate some
change... it is largely, unfortunately, no longer within my power.

Sensory Networks, the company that Jonathan works for, acquired
dspam on May 22nd (Read full story at http://www.zdziarski.com/), so
I guess they are now considered the developers, even though they are
not developing.
I agree that there are a lot of patches floating around, and that
something needs to be done.

Hi,
has the dspam development stopped? Is there a maintainer for dspam?
The CVS looks quite dead and a lot of patches are floating around.
Best regards,
