That about sums it up. I maintain it only because it is a dependency of my own upstream Perl package: libxml-qofqsf-perl (XML::QOFQSF).

If it helps you to move libtext-vfile-asdata-perl out of the debian-perl repo, that's fine - I'll take good care of it, promise. ;-) (I do use perl for other packages and I have one other CPAN package but most of my work is actually in C.) -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
