Re: Anyone interested in keeping pessulus alive?



I will *definitely* need this for my job (to implement GNOME 3 desktop
in enterprise), so I can try to port it - and maintain it too, if
necessary. I'm student too (for last year it seems), so I can try to
pick it up as GSoC project too. If lucky, it could be win-win (and
third win for people who still want such functionality).
