What exactly do you mean by "targeted at procedural ..."? The package itself
is implemented in OO style, AFAICS.

I moved that discussion to the QA list because of this. First way to go is
from your side to provide unified diff's against the current CVS verion of
the package to the QA list. We will then try to reach the maintainer again.
If there is still no reaction, we have to plan more efforts here.

I would kindly ask you to try reaching the developer again, because a
cooperation on that package is much more worth than pushing in patches.

Toby

Well I've been able to contact Andrew a few times about this package,
and he told me that he's working on a better design, and I gave him few
tips, he came with few things he want todo, so I think the package is
moving along and moving in the right direction.

And he answered my within 5 hours of me sending him the first email,
maybe he have been out of town ? How knows :)

I CC'ed Andrew also btw.
