No code was the rule we discussed. Other stuff would be a matter for
discussion. The idea was that pgfoundry was supposed to be confined to
real projects and not a repository of failed ideas.

So are you telling me you want to be responsible for it?

That was what I started to do. Unfortunately, the README is
instrucitons for some SQL and code files which are missing. I don't
see any value in Techdocs for instructions that can't be followed.

Again, it's the same question. If *you* want to be the maintainer, I'll
put it on pgfoundry. Otherwise, you're asking me to be responsible for
the code because you don't want to throw it away.
