Wow, this is great. I don't know if you read how much we worried that
the project could be dead since we didn't hear a thing in such a long
time and the domain apparently expired.
We mirrored the tarballs at a number of locations and I believe someone
put the website up somewhere as well.

This is simply great, I'll try it immediately.
Do you want bug reports per mail or some other way?

Best regards,
