 YOU'VE LISTED SOVIET UNTERZÖGERSDORF !!!1!!11!

 Everyone, get it! :)  I have personal contact to most of the people
involved in the project, it might be possible to convince them, though
it will get hard with relation to some of the used tunes, and the source
isn't available neither. I'm though proding them all the time to do the
second part....  Maybe I'll be able to sneak into the production to get
my 5 minutes of fame. *harhar*

 Oh, I forgot to mention the client for furcadia[1] in my former mail:
There is sort of a long-lost c++ code available on sourceforge for which
I was able to contact the authors, they would be pleased if it would be
re-established, they think it should still be working, and I have
contact to someone who was working on the original furcadia client code,
too (not anymore, but he still has quite a lot of insight). So if anyone
is into RPing, has a good c++ knoweldge....  I unfortunately don't have,
but am rather enthusiastic about that system, I like the things it
offers.

 Good news, btw: The person who wrote the ITP for bubbob wrote back to
me that he rather think he wouldn't be well suited, but he uploaded it
to mentors.debian.net for someone to pick up. Given my rush before I'm
more than willing, but given the list here I'm also willing to
team-maintain it. Though I have to admit that I loath cdbs and the other
patch utilities, because a diff inside the diff.gz is plainly stupid,
and it makes it worse in most of the situations. And, I prefer keeping
my fingers off of debhelper, too. :)
 I've even tried to compile the java applet with kaffe, it seems to
work, haven't tried it in a browser though.

 So long,
Alfie
