I am running a "manualbuilder", I mean sbuild fed up with the output of
quinn-diff, so that the packages are not to much out-dated.

I am interested in this two packages. BTW, do you have some tips to give

Are you planning to follow a little the development of the port? If it

- Way to contact the gnuab administrator
- ...
