 True.
 It sounds like you're at least semi-familiar with the issue.
 Would you be willing to help maintain this package?

There have been a few other people who want to keep it alive and who
actually use it.

It's seems to be unmaintained upstream. There are unanswered tickets in
upstream's tracker. It looks as if there are more issues than what has
been reported in Fedora's tracker. = Program would benefit from an active
developer.

All I've done was to take a brief look at the source for a first
impression of code quality. And to look for obvious mistakes.

There is enough that current packagers could do. Browse other dist's bug
trackers/packages to look for existing patches. Create a list of what
doesn't work, separate it from feature requests. Determine test-cases for
reproducing crashes, possible specific to wireless networking. Browse bz
tickets for dependencies to find out where the memory corruption might
come from. Try to talk to the gnome-screensaver package maintainer to ask
what he thinks about the gtkiconcache crash.

Though, there is no immediate need to spend time on this package as long
as it's unmaintained upstream and as long as crashes are not reproducible.

Yes, it's obviously meant to work that way, but it wasn't.  It'd get
stuck at one of the changes, and not recover.  Occasionally, I'd find it
monitoring the local loopback network.  ;-\

I have plans to use python-pgsql:

 python-pgsql                               
 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/python-pgsql

... but I haven't actually used it yet.

I just want a way to access PostgreSQL databases from Python.  If
there is a better way than python-pgsql, then I won't really need it.

If having a maintainer would prevent its removal from Fedora 13, I
could do that.  However, while I know Python pretty well, I'm quite
the newbie with SQL.

Yes, adopting it as a maintainer would be enough to prevent its removal. I 
guess you do not need much SQL knowledge to maintain it. I do now know, why 
it has been orphaned, but you could contact the previous maintainer, who is 
probably:
Konstantin Ryabitsev icon fedoraproject org

But maybe it was just orphaned, because the maintainer becamse unresponsive, 
then there is probably not reason against maintaining it.

Till

If this package is no longer to be available in F13 is there an alternate
package/widget/applet that can be used to monitor download speed?   I have
always found this really useful all the time

If I may suggest a console utility, try vnstat. It can do much more than 
just monitor your download speed. If you have a webserver running on the 
box, you can also have a php frontend with pretty graphs. :)

Hope this helps.

Open source is the future. It sets us free.

 Hi, at least the following packages are currently going to not be

It's been a while since I used this the last time, but would consider 
Fedora dropping this package a pity.

Apparently this package suffers from several issues (It currently 
doesn't build and has some BZ'ed filed), nevertheless it seems to have 
an active upstream.

I am currently trying to get this package building and to address the 
open BZ's. Should these efforts be without apparent failure, I'd at 
least temporarily pick up this package to prevent it from being dropped 
from Fedora.

Should somebody more interested than me show up, I'd step back into the 
co-maintainer position.
