 anfo for Debian
 ---------------
 
-Straightforward package.  Lintian complains that the library component should be split
-out, so I need to do that at some point.

+   as the author of the program is question let me send one thing ahead:  I
+   don't think you're making very many people happy by packaging it.  For
+   various reasons, Anfo didn't exactly achieve what we hoped it would, and
+   it is now effectively abandoned.  I believe it contains a few good
+   ideas, but they will forever be locked in a tool of very little use.
+   
+   That said, I'm flattered that you picked it up none the less, and I'll
+   happily apply your patches once I get around to it.  Even if I don't use
+   Anfo anymore, I still want it to compile.
+   
+   Best,
+   Udo.
