The link to the inofficial packages points to Steffen Möllers archive,
but I can't find the packages there any more. (Stefen?)

I would love to sponsor the packages if Steffen asks me for sponsoring.
On the other hand we have not yet a WNPP-bug for this project, which
should be filed in the first place.

For those who have no idea about WNPP, just see

   http://people.debian.org/~tille/cdd/ap-bts.en.html

For an overview about the Debian-Med relevant WNPP-bugs just see

   http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=wnpp&include=subject:%5bmed

I guess Steffen would be happy if someone would support him in moving
any of his inofficial packages to the official mirror.

Kind regards

        Andreas.
