Re: Release-critical Bugreport for January 25, 2002



I've adopted this one and we (the upstream and I) have fixed a few of the bugs.  I was talking to him last month but he has not responded to any of my emails for the past 2 weeks.  If we decide to drop this one that is fine with me (I'll find another to adopt).  The upstream is into fixing the existing bugs but he has not mentioned any major new releases that he is planning.

I have to agree with Bernhard R. Link (the bug reporter) on this one:

  As the program cannot scroll the list of public keys, it is unusable
  for keyrings with more then very few keys. (You even cannot scroll
  per keyboard, the selection leaves the window).

  It shows messages like "This feature is under construction", it has
  an "Validity"-Column, that is always empty. In some dialogs it hat
  input-masks for "Trust" and "Validity", that do not do anything.


Moreover, upstream seems to have been dormant for over two years.

Should we just ask the ftpmasters to nuke it?
