Well you've sent it a couple of times, and I've sent it in five more times
over the past year.  Once we were told "awaiting maintainer ack".

This situation is fairly stupid.  How about we make you the maintainer?

Last time I looked at it, I still wasn't comfortable with it.  I'm going
to look at it again.

Please do. Its burning the proverbial hole in my pocket; I'd really
like to get this off my list of things I worry about.

I'm fairly sure Linas doesn't want to be the sym2 maintainer.  It's
still an ugly pile of junk that needs cleaning up.

Heh. I have no difficulty living with ugly code: its actually a 
great excuse to fix things instead of doing "real work" :-)

Rather, the menagerie of hardware I have access to is constantly 
changing; I don't have a symbios card just right now, and it might 
take a few days to even find someone who did.  Which is an incredibly
unpleasent, unrewarding activity.
