Hi Didi,

Thank you for the offer. We are always interested in contributions
from the user-base and when it is from someone of your standing, it
certainly is most welcome.

I will look at the package tomorrow -- unfortunately I do not have the
time this evening -- and assuming there is nothing untoward in the
License with regards to the redistribution of the firmware, I'll give
it a positive vote.

As for support, we would welcome your help and, just as we have done
with others, are prepared to give you "developer" status within the
ELRepo bug tracker. Let's take things one step at a time . . .

Regards,
Alan.
