Hello Andreas,

There was some copyright/license issues that needed to be resolved.   
Those should all be resolved now, I thought that there was a new  
release but maybe that didn't happen, I will take a look.  Otherwise,  
I don't think there is anything blocking an upload.  I'm pretty hectic  
this week with an upcoming weekend trip, but hopefully I can resolve  
this in the coming week.  I would very much like to see BioCocoa  
updated.

cheers
Scott
