ureadahead

[Bryan Fullerton]

Howdy,

I've recently been taking a more active interest in Ubuntu, and as a
starting point I started looking through open bugs. I noticed there were
quite a few outstanding bugs for ureadahead that seemed fairly straight
forward to fix, so I did a few updates on the Ubuntu raring branch and
pushed them up.

However, in the process of this I couldn't help but notice that ureadahead
seems fairly abandoned, even though it's still shipping with most (all?)
versions of Ubuntu. The main project on LP hasn't been updated in almost
three years, and even the Ubuntu branches only have bare minimum of updates.

So... questions.

Is the intention to keep ureadahead in the base Ubuntu OS for
the foreseeable future?

If yes, should changes to the base functionality (which arguably all the
changes I've made are) be pushed back up to the main ureadahead LP project,
or just done in Ubuntu release branches?

And in either case, who is the maintainer now for the main LP project and
Ubuntu branches?

Thanks!
Bryan
