This really is a poor situation. The fact that there are patches means
that it's not totally dead but no one ever looking at them really puts
people off bothering in the future.
I might have a go at getting OF to work on the SH4 hardware I have but
knowing that the patches will probably never get looked at is very
demotivating.

Can we get a new maintainer from somewhere?

Cheers,

Daniel
