Well, frankly I've just got a new job and so I haven't had the time to start
playing with it.  If you've got packages done already, then that's great.  I
don't mind not being the maintainer for this one, I guess I can't really
commit a lot of time to it.

I've got a tv input card, and people close by who want to use this software,
so lots of people to test :-)

I'd be happy to co-maintain this package with you.  Possibly you can put
your packages up somewhere so I (and others, Eric B. for example) can play
with them?
