[gentoo-dev] anybody wants app-misc/nomad-tool?

[George Shapovalov]

Hi guys.

This is a tool for interfacing Creative's Nomad II MG flash mp3 player. It was 
a rather decent one at its time, but that was, well, long ago. I even wrote a 
simplistic gui for that tool :). (And, incidentally, this is how I inherited 
the package).

I don't have the device any longer. Also, the package did not see any updates 
since 2003. I guess it may be considered "stale" at this point and given to 
tree cleaners. Especially considering that it ceased to compile on x86 once 
more (bug #152131). However, looking at how there is only one bug on it 
(which though may merely indicate low interest) I want to give it some 
resemblace of a 2nd chance. 

If anybody still cares about this thing, please, by all means I am happy to 
give it up. I will help with whatever problems come up with the gui part, but 
I cannot maintain the tool itself. I am going to keep that bug open for 
another month or so and in the absence of any interest I will give the 
package to tree cleaners..

Also, there seems to be an alternative for this one - nomadii-utils, which 
seem to cover this player. However I never tested those myself and the latest 
they seem to have been touched by the upstream is 2002..

George
