Maintainer needed for mSQL stuff



Hi,

as some of you might already have expected, I will give up on all
mSQL related packges that I have maintained.

They need a new maintainer within the next months.

If nobody stands up, I *will* request their removal.

Rationale:

 . The core packages are non-free, some clients are contrib.

 . There are SQL servers far better than mSQL, it was a nice
   start some years ago but things have changed.  There are
   one or two totally free SQL servers as well.

 . Maintaining the core mSQL packages is a pain because you have
   to keep all changes etc.

 . The upstream author(s) refuse to use any of our patches.

 . ACL is considered harmful.

Regards,

	Joey
