Hi Yaroslav,

Thanks for reaching out.  Yes, I would like be involved in the debian
packaging effort.  However, in the interest of full disclosure I should
admit that (1) as you've probably already guessed from my packages, I'm a
novice at building debian packages, and (2) my bandwidth is all but
crippled at the moment (though I'll assist in whatever way I can).

I have some questions about your package:

(1) Where is the java viewer?  Being as it's my primary contribution to the
project, I'd kinda like to see it included ;)
(2) Have all of Pierre's Fltk patches been incorporated into the native
debian Fltk package?  If not, the viewer will lack full functionality.  (I
realize that statically linking the fltk libs into our binary is
problematic from a distro point of view).

Thanks,
-brian
