Okay, I am very glad that you like the application. Tells me that I did
not make this application for nothing

I would be more than happy if somebody with the proper knowledge of
buildscripts could help me. If you see fixes that you can do then do not
hesitate to contact me and provide patches.

The next release that I will be responsible for will be the 2.1.0 or
unstable release. I don't know if this release will get packages by the
packagers (debian and redhat). I will also maintain the next stable
branche called 2.2.0. This branche will be developed in parallel with
2.1.0 of course. When a first release of 2.2.0 will be finished: I don't
know  this highly depends on the amount of contributions and people
wanting to help me. At this moment I am the only active developer of the
package .. and I can tell you that it is becoming a lot of code to
manage.
