I can take a whack at Seesat5. Forward you enhancement ideas and some might even get implemented :-)Patrick, you volunteered to take over seesat5 a month ago but so far have not made an upload. Can you please at least change the Maintainer: so it's clear that you are now responsible for the package.
This is a package that I brought to Debian way back when I joined up. I would really like a maintainer for it so I can begin to function as the upstream developer. The outstanding parser bug against this package hasn't been fixed because the only good way to fix it is to rebuild the parser. This requires reworking all the "command" subroutines and linking them to a lex/yacc parser. This is a major project for a package maintainer, as the packaging issues keep getting in the way of the big project...
Anyway, if Patrick is still out there, and still interested, drop me a line and let's talk.
