I use NDBM and it has worked better for me than positron since day 1, and it does continue to see updates. It'd be nice to have NDBM packaged for Debian and in the archive (though not critical, since jar files are easy enough to deal with) if someone with java skillz is interested. - David Nusinow -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Orphaning most of my packages
The time is long since past to admit that I will *never* again have the time to provide proper maintenance to my packages. Given the brief delay in the freeze, hopefully someone can pick these up and get new versions in with proper maintainers. I don't have time to provide sponsorship either; I will be around to answer questions for the new maintainer, but you might wait a day or two for a response (but usually more quickly than that.) I can provide a CVS repo of the package history for all of these; send me an email (adopters only, please). I have submitted wnpp bugs for these; I've not uploaded versions with the maintainer set to QA, I'll get around to that later(!) for any that aren't adopted. Bug#392665: O: nvi - 4.4BSD re-implementation of vi Effectivley dead upstream. Needs some love for 8bit and unicode handling. Bug#392666: O: dgpsip - Correct GPS location with DGPS signal from internet Probably irrelevant now that selective availability is gone, but popcon shows 32 installs, so maybe someone is actually using this. If noone adopts, I'll ask for removal rather than re-assign to QA. Bug#392671: O: ee - An "easy editor" for novices and compuphobics Not dead upstream, but finished, I think. Bug#392672: O: positron - synchronization manager for the Neuros Audio Computer Python. Probably dead after v1.1. Pierre Habouzit has NMU'd a version 1.1 upgrade and support for new python policy, see bug # 380895.

Re: orphaning most (of my) packages
Hello, > libphp-adodb (a php database abstraction layer, required for 'acidlab') I'll like to adopte the libphp-adodb package from you. I have created the packages with the new upstream version. You can download it from: ftp://jade.viastore.de/debian/pool/main/libp/libphp-adodb/ All current outstanding bugs are fixed with this version. So, if noone is interessted...

I've check out the bug list and the package and I'd like to take this

orphaning most (of my) packages
Hi,
I'm going to orphan most of my packages. Before I upload them with
Maintainer: set to QA, i'd like people to look at them and see if they want
anything :)
Some of the - less intensive - packages I'm keeping, the others I can't keep
on maintaining due to several reasons (bought a house, plan to be busy with
that, busy time at work, social stuff).
Please contact me if you want to take anything; most of them will be
first-come, first-serve.
Orphaning:
kernel-patch-2.2.18-openwall (needs updating to more recent kernel, and
general maintenance)
libphp-adodb (a php database abstraction layer, required for 'acidlab')
lvm-common (this should go to the new lvm maintainer, I think. Cc to him
for this reason)
razor ('needed' by spamasassin; needs updating)
xonix-jahu (ancient game)
kernel-patch-int (should be superseded by cryptoapi; i can't find the time).
Then there's some ITP's i (enthousiastically) did; i'm going to be closing
them too. Interested people can upload and close at will, if they're faster
than me: ricochet, loop-aes, cryptoapi, ipsec-tunnel.
Greets,
Robert
