Ok...

Is there really that much to fix?  The tarball hasn't been updated in almost 
a year; I figured the package had stabilized.   If there is a wish list I 
wouldn't mind seeing it.  And I did volunteer, I just don't have the 
experience nor the resources (e.g. hotmail will not do) to do it without 
some handholding and support.

heh.  You, my friend, have a bright future ahead of you.

Removed the hostname just in case (I didn't now why you mailed me privately, 
maybe you just forgot to CC the list).

What's gForge?

Nobody volunteered actually... IIRC, your featureful changes just modularized 
it and allowed part of it to be used in uml_netjig, right?

In this case, I think it can be accepted (I saw some remarks in the discussion 
but I think they were addressed enough, in the end).

  No, I just didn't want to broadcast the location of the new install

I can give you hosting on www.user-mode-linux.org.  And no experience is not
an excuse - we were all babes in the woods at one point :-)
