flexfax: Does anyone know if my patches for 8bit iso8859-1 international character sets will make it into the main distribution?

[Leif Erlingsson <leif@lege.com>]

Does anyone know if my patches for 8bit iso8859-1 international
character sets will make it into the main distribution?

	/usr/src/hylafax-v4.0pl1/util/TextFmt.h.patch
	/usr/src/hylafax-v4.0pl1/util/TextFmt.c++.patch

These patches, that was posted here on the flexfax list back in
February 1997;	Date: Thu, 13 Feb 1997 07:06:24 +0100 (MET);
Subject: TextFmt.c++/.h & ISO-8859-1; Solution: (unsigned const..;
solves the bug with signed characters that makes 8bit iso8859-1
characters difficult to handle when converting from iso8859-1 text
in email and otherwise.

The patches ave very small, but I don't like to post them anyway,
so I'll add them to my web-site as:

	http://www.lege.com/hylafax-v4.0pl1-util-TextFmt.h.patch
	http://www.lege.com/hylafax-v4.0pl1-util-TextFmt.c++.patch

Just re-name them

	/usr/src/hylafax-v4.0pl1/util/TextFmt.h.patch
	/usr/src/hylafax-v4.0pl1/util/TextFmt.c++.patch

and apply them using

	cd /usr/src/hylafax-v4.0pl1/util
	patch < TextFmt.h.patch
	patch < TextFmt.c++.patch

and make real clean (read the README's and INSTALL's) and re-
compile!	(It was nearly a year ago I did this so I don't
remember how, there is a very good web-site about HylaFax at
http://www.vix.com, check that out if you need assistance!)


Q2: Who is today "official maintainer" of the HylaFax source?
Is it still Sam Leffler <sam@engr.sgi.com>?  I never heard from
him after my February 1997 post, that was To: him.


Q3: Is there anything at all going on with the HylaFax project
anymore?
   

Thanks!
