>>If this tool is no longer maintained, I think it needs someone who wants
+to be the maintainer of this software, and setup a code repository
+somewhere.
+Maintainer is a biiiig word. It is based on Python 2.7, the code is very
+small and lightweight so it should not be a big effort for an experianced
+programmer.
+
+>>Do you know why the upstream developers did not continue maintaining it ?
+
+It seems that the initial developer was a Pardus Linux developer.
+Unfortunately the Pardus project is stopped and all developers left the
+department. This is imho the main reason.
+Unfortunately all Pardus technologies depends on other Pardus related
+technics like Comar and maybe murdur. If anybody will remove these code
+snippets then it should run anywhere. Im not a programmer but I had some
+look into the code base and for a professional it should be not be a hard
+thing to do.
+
+This little tool is really handy and imho it is too nice and helpful to let
+it die. It would fit into Mageia perfectly and should help to make mageia
+more userfriendly for beginners.
+
+btw.... thanks for Your kind reply
