Bug#745615: dcraw maintenance



Hi Laszlo,

thank you for your worry about dcraw. I've prepared
dcraw update (Jasper is removed from dependencies,
upstream version is updated, CI suite is included, 
autotools improved,..) some time ago. Unfortunately, 
it is out of my capabilities to push the changes to 

 collab-maint/dcraw.git

on Alioth, because I am not a member of collab-maint 
yet. I issued of membership request a week ago
via web form on Alioth (confirmed by Mr.Streicher). 
Now, I'm waiting for acceptation.

If the request will not be accepted in a near future,
Plan B is prepared: Mr.Fros will update dcraw repository
by Mike's patch (solving the Jasper stigma).

Best regards
FH
