Hi all!

First, sorry for taking so much time to answer.  I'm very busy now,
like all of you, I suppose...

1. I have not used "statist" for a long time.  But building the Debian
   package was quite easy, becauses it uses GNU tools (configure & make).

2. I just received a message, that my ITP (intent to package) to Debian
   is closed, because it was too old and no Debian developer was 
   interested in it.  Sure it helped that I did not continue to build
   packages for the new versions.  See http://bugs.debian.org/155073

3. If there is an interest, I can "reopen" that "bug" and try to build
   the new "statist".  I remember that last time we discussed whether there
   should be a German or English version by default.  By following this
   list, I presume that gettext support was improved thereafter, and now
   packaging "statist" should be even easier.

Cheers,
