I can't take on maintenance of SO unfortunately, but I'll try porting
it and will happily submit any resulting patches.

Also, are there major features that need to go into SO still? I mean
wouldn't a bugfix, minor fix, maintenance mode be enough? It's a
mature product already I suppose. It's better to dedicate time/effort
to bugfixes and maintenance than implementing new features which are
buggy due to lack of time of the developers.

Cheers,
Daniel
