@Beuc:

It may help the cause... if you would ... add some details of what it means to maintain freedink. If you give people an idea of what is involved, we might have more luck getting someone else to take over your role.

o How many operating systems do you have to maintain so you can compile on them?
o How much code have you changed (lines of code) over the time you have been responsible for freedink? Is that about 10% or 20% or 50% or even more?
o How often do you have to make changes to make certain that freedink is compatible with the latest releases of the operating systems you support?
o How many branches of freedink and dfarc are you currently maintaining?
o Is there anything else that you think might be helpful in giving people a grasp of the scope of this honor?
o What are the nice and not-so-nice parts you talked about above?
