That's all helpful to know. Clearly, we are working very hard to promote free software at our University and beyond, and with some success. Since I've managed to (mostly) get my head around the way Savane works I find it nicer to use all the time, though there are always some niggles (as there always are with such big programs). So, in summary, I don't wish to leave Savane, and would in a perfect world like to contribute patches towards the small new features I would like to see. I confess that I am already frighteningly busy, as the SVN commit times on my own projects will testify, but, as a fellow of the FSFE and a person committed to free software I am willing to contribute a little time if it helps. Others might be too, including my colleague Gordon Crawford. Indeed, I have been building experience packaging our own PHP code for Debian, and once I had completed that task for our next big release late this month or early next month, I did hope to turn my attention to whether packaging for Savane could be improved. So, in summary, we at the University of Ulster are very busy for the next few weeks, but after that perhaps we can help, at least a little.
