Just try to fix serious bugs as they crop up. My other job (Orca work) is
keeping me busy full time.

I really would like to find another maintainer for gcalctool. I don't
have the time to work on it any more. Asking on desktop-devel a
couple of months ago didn't find anyone. Unfortunately the other
gcalctool developer (Sami) isn't interested in being the maintainer.

I'll generate gcalctool tarballs for each GNOME point release.
They may or may not have fixes in them. They will have any
new translations that have been done.

No, not really.

No, not really.

No, not really.

N/A.

No suggestions.
