I've applied to master, but to be honest, this project looks "weird".
The previous home page at http://www.udpxy.com/ doesn't look like the
home page of a project. The Github README says:

   udpxy has not been extended or supported for 4+ years, having been
   replaced by Gigapxy - a superior enterprise-oriented product.
   Please see more info at <http://gigapxy.com>, thank you.

There's a page at http://gigapxy.com/udpxy-en.html, which also says:

  udpxy has been around since 2008, it is included in the firmware of
  many IPTV-enabled routers. However, its development has been on hold
  since 2012, with most of the effort routed toward enterprise-grade
  products, such as Gigapxy, RoWAN, GigA+ and GigaTools.

And http://gigapxy.com/ itself indeed promotes Gigapxy, which is not
open-source.

Also, everything under a chipmunk/ subdir in the Github repo looks
"odd" as well.

We also have no entry in the DEVELOPERS file for this package. It was
added in 2017 by David Bachelart.

Best regards,

Thomas
