I sent him an e-mail yesterday but still no reply. E-mail message was not
bounced back to me, though.

Well, many Cuban users are facing a very restricted posititon when it
comes to Internet access. Some of them only have a limited e-mail account
and nothing more so the only way they can communicate with the "outside"
world to solve their linux problems is by using mailing lists. That means
no Google, no FAQs and no "fresh" tips/documentation at all.
Anyway, I guess Cosme situation is a bit special as he almost never
replies to Debian Spanish list nor to direct e-mail requests :-?

But a further reading on the Wikipedia¹ article about the duo it gives me
an idea of whole picture, I guess ;-)
