Hi Steven,

I don't expect anything from last year's attempt would make it into Xal=
an.
None of the code from that project was ever contributed back to Apache.=

Given your analysis it doesn't sound like there's much of value in that=

repository anyway.

It's a shame, but I think we've all learned some valuable lessons from =
that
experience.

Thanks.
