I can help to some degree, but I definitely can't do it all myself. There are two main issues. First, it has to be rebased. There have been a lot of changes since it was written -- I tried a rebase last year but it was pretty painful, I think I stopped while fixing up the process changes. The branch is also kind of messy, since I think I mostly didn't write ChangeLogs and there have been several merges from master. So I suppose it would need some cleanups as well. Second, last time this was discussed there were a reasonably large number of comments on features that had to be done in order to merge. I haven't worked on any of those. BTW Ken Raeburn was also interested in this branch. Tom
