[Nut-upsdev] Re: Patch for optiups to support Zinto D from ONLINE

[Peter Selinger]

No, I had no luck with the email address Scott had left on file for
us. 

Google turns up two possible email addresses at
http://www.geocities.com/scottheavner/ and
http://wiki.wordpress.org/Ratings%20Plugin, but one cannot be sure
that it is the same person. 

Sure, please go ahead with Matthias' patch. If it breaks Scott's or
any user's device, I am sure we will hear from them sooner or later.
