I really shouldn't be commenting on this stuff at all, since I
1) haven't looked at i4b in years and
2) don't even have a src-commit bit any more

I was thinking about this a little yesterday. It seems like one approach
would be for someone to sponsor HPS for a src-commit bit and he could
then import his stuff under /usr/src/contrib and keep it up-to-date.

That could be a good fit since there are already lots of things in
there which are maintained by external developers or by a single
developer.

The problem is finding a committer who is interested enough in i4b to
step forward and invest time in this. I lost interest years ago after
DSL became affordable here in Germany.

Another option, as I wrote in my previous mail, would be to have HPS'
stuff in a port. This IMO would be the path of least resistance.
