I think he's not answering since coding is taking a lot of time... and
he prefers ending the rewrite sooner rather than answering emails. Also
because many issues the ML reported will no longer exists in the new
"visdn".
Hi Matteo, thanks for letting us know the state of visdn. I too saw
visdn as the last, best hope for ISDN in linux. (cue bablyon 5 music)
:-)
The problem is that people will se an almost abandoned website and
figure nothing much is happening here and move on. Except for some
snapshots hiding in the download directory nothing changes. :)
Hiding the development alienates the more interested users and cuts you
off from potentially valuable feedback. No releases necessary, but
letting us peek at the version control system and do a check out would
be nice.
I'm 200% along with andrea on his statements, not
sharing knowledge and showing support to your
base is detrimental to the project and let people
think it is dead. And once dead you need to make
bigger effort to convince people that it
resurrected.
One suggestion would be to install a Trac site
for the project and document changes instead of
clueless SVN comments that can be understood only
be the coder himself and certainly handled by him
as a unnecessary burden (a loose-loose
configuration IMHO).
We switched from vISDN to mISDN because of the
lake of 'support' to the code and apparent
progress (not very reassuring to have a on person
code working on an other agenda, no documentation
and user patchs that correct bugs for months
without any 'approval' and port back to the code
by the 'official' coder).
Regards
