As I understand it, the only reason why we maintain a fork of Adaptagrams is that there isn't an upstream release yet.
Is anyone in touch with the upstream Adaptagrams dev (M Wybrow)? If we could persuade him to make a release tarball, perhaps we can get it adopted by some distros... and then finally drop our fork!
It's not necessary to have a cooperative upstream (though it is much nicer) you can build the tarballs from a fork, publish them on github and kick the distros into packaging mode.
I would have preferred we do it this way than bringing in the adaptergrams code into our codebase. But I understand there are complications with different platforms.
