I don't want to send further reply to Stephen's thoughts... I think I
described and explained my situation... admitting all my faults. I don't
like ultimatum and I don't like all his questions about my faults and
the reason for my absence.

As I've just written, I'll be happy to help with surfraw but it's better
if I leave maintainer's role. So I sent an RFA... please, adopt it and I
hope to be able to help you soon. I like the idea of a project on
Alioth.
