Hi Andres,
I saw your message only yesterday, sorry about that. As it turns out, I
have also been working on getting Midori fixed. My intention is to
maintain it; Thadeu Cascardo is going to help me take over the package.
However, as you are also willing to co-maintain the package, maybe we
could create a group on Alioth to work together?
I also looked at your branch. What I am doing is basically a
"repackaging", from scratch, trying to figure out what's important and
what's not. I'll publish my branch later today.
So, any opinions on how to proceed?
Thanks,
