Hi Tobias,

thank you for your fast answer. Sorry that I didn't reply at first, the 
reason is easy: I was not aware that I actually wrote to a mailling 
list, so I expected to get a personal mail back (well of course the 
e-mail address gives some hints, but I didn't notice... I just clicked 
on the link mail to the Debain VDR Team on the vdr package page...)
Today I found your project and was a bit surprised to find my e-mail in 
the archive :-o.
In the mean time I also learned that Nicolas Huillard already has some 
debian packages of the softdevice and he told me that he wants to try to 
help maintaining the packages. I guess he will contact you.

So what are the changes you needed to get the softdevice compiled? Did 
you already do the your tests?

Thank you very much,

Martin
