Hi Jan!

Thanks for looking at this. As you noticed the current git tree is in a
less-than-idea state (a lot of reverts, patch-after-patch fixes etc. in the last
100 or so commits).

We have been discussing reverting back to the 2.2 release (i.e. before the last
change of maintainer upstream) to get things back into a more reasonable shape
upstream and to ensure we have a cleaner history in the upstream repository
(right now it is quite painful trying to track changes in some parts of the tree).

At the same time Keith is keen to move to a github repository because of the
improved review, tracking and collaboration tools they provide so it seems like
if we are going to go ahead with this kind of clean up this would be the time to
do it.

Regards,
Bryn.
