Hi Ryan,

Norbert was a colleague of mine and retired some years ago. I talked to him 
recently, and in principle he would be interested in making required changes to 
his code if there are some people who actively use this code. So if there are 
more users than you and me who are interested, it might be possible to convince 
Norbert to do some work on it.

Kind regards,

Ado

Hi openafs-info,

Norbert hasn't been heard from for a long time and I had a server that
needed upgrading, so I hacked up the Perl AFS distribution to get
dependent code going again.  My site's code mainly uses the VLDB and
VOS modules so the rest of the stuff is mostly only compile-tested.

I don't expect this fork to work anywhere except with OpenAFS 1.8.x
libraries on Linux.  If there's any interest in reviving it to get
more modules working and/or improve portability, backwards
compatibility, etc, feel free to send your pull requests.

(Disclaimer: for greenfield Perl code it's better to use the CLI
wrappers at https://github.com/openafs-contrib/afs-command)
