I just sent a similar patch[*] to the MAINTAINER (Don Stewart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) and received the following: ----- Forwarded message from Donald Bruce Stewart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- From: Donald Bruce Stewart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 19 Jul 2006 13:13:57 +1000 To: Will Maier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: OpenBSD Ports: UPDATE deve/darcs User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.11 Unfortunately, I don't have the time to maintain this anymore. Two weeks ago Jon Olsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> sent me the very same patch (and also to ports@ iirc). I suggest that either you or John should suggest there to take maintainership of darcs, with my ok, and then submit patches. Cheers, Don ----- End forwarded message ----- Jon, would you be interested in maintaining the port? I don't use DARCS at all... [*] Somehow, I read Jon's patch; forgot about it; wondered if I could get the DARCS port to build tailor, too; saw that DARCS wanted upgrading; and went back and redid it. Jon's patch is better than mine, though. ;) -- o--------------------------{ Will Maier }--------------------------o | web:.......http://www.lfod.us/ | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | *------------------[ BSD Unix: Live Free or Die ]------------------*
