However, the current bogofilter release branch 0.96 removes TDB support, and is expected to be blessed as "stable" later this month, so the bogofilter-tdb port is going to break as soon as the master port is updated. As far as I know, bogofilter-tdb wasn't very popular. A recent poll on the bogofilter lists came up with zero TDB users, everyone used Berkeley DB, sqlite or QDBM. I'd like to get rid of the bogofilter-tdb port when I update the bogofilter master port in a couple of days, is such OK or do we have to carry the port forward (perhaps with older bogofilter code) until the expiry date? TIA, -- Matthias Andree
