Robert and Sven,
I would like to start a separated branch for it on darcs (parted is
moving to darcs just after 1.8 release but we already have the
repository available for hacking on the 2.0 basis) and then make it
available on upstream version on 2.0 or even on 1.8.x release
depending how deeply are the changes.
Robert, would you mind if I provide you the repository for us start to
work on that?
