If nobody has any objections, I will package Plex for contrib. Upstream
had been inquired about the toolchain and RFN issues: they didn't
comment, and I don't see it changing.
I have the packaging mostly done, but before going forward I'll wait for
your comments, especially from Zebulon, who has filed the original ITP.
Cheers,
Paride
