It seems like one approach would be for someone to sponsor HPS for a src-commit bit and he could then import his stuff under /usr/src/contrib and keep it up-to-date. That could be a good fit since there are already lots of things in there which are maintained by external developers or by a single developer. The problem is finding a committer who is interested enough in i4b to step forward and invest time in this. I lost interest years ago after DSL became affordable here in Germany. Another option, as I wrote in my previous mail, would be to have HPS' stuff in a port. This IMO would be the path of least resistance. -- Gary Jennejohn
