Hi Oliver,
just a quick response, although I don't have a new tarball yet. The
project isn't dead as such. It still serves my purposes here at work, so
there is no real need to change things from my end. I still try to fix
incompatibilities that arise every now and then. I use the refdb-pubmed
tool a lot which required a few fixes, and a few glitches had to be
fixed in libdbi or its drivers. I have a few local changes on
Windows+Cygwin that are not committed yet, and moving to a new desktop
at work a few months ago left me unable to commit to the Subversion
repository. This seems to be a local permission issue which I may not be
able to resolve (I'm in a healthcare environment, I'm not allowed to
fiddle with permissions). I'll move the local changes to my FreeBSD box
at home to get them submitted eventually. I did a major FreeBSD version
upgrade lately, so RefDB may need to be recompiled for any testing. The
new tarball may take a few days so please don't hang on the edge of your
seat. The good thing is that the present code here at work has been
tested for quite a while.
regards,
Markus
