As part of an evualation of VDO, I created packages for both the kernel
and the userland. Unfortunately, the tests showed VDO, while being
functional, is not a suitable solution for the very specific
requirements here.

Therefore I will *not* take up this package, my task list is quite full
already, and not being a user of the packages one maintains is a bad
start. If however someone out there has a VDO setup in everyday usage
and wants to benefit from VDO being in Debian, drop me a line. Perhaps
we can find a way to get this done. You dont't have to be a DD, but
should have a knowledge and experience with Linux, especially in the
LVM/VDO area.
