Re: Bug#505992: O: genparse -- command line parser generator



Hi Michael,

thanks for informing us about your activity. Please understand that I'm
not proposing genparse's removal out of any animosity towards genparse
or you whatsoever but just because of it's lack of maintenance.

That sounds reasonable and I'm giving it another (additional) shot by
CC'ing debian-mentors. Maybe some of our working and prospective
maintainers is using genparse and willing to keep the package in shape.
