David,

Let me explain better my last comment, about forking a project (comment 12):

[1] It might be acceptable, If and only if upstream is dead. Which means that
no answer or releases came from upstream for a long time, and no one else has
took the software maintenance. (I guess I didn't explain it clearly before).
Please, take a closer look at:

[2] Sshdfilter does not look like a dead prokect. There are activity reported
in its website, and you have some answers, also (comment 9). Perhaps, its
developers are just overbusy. Submit them your patches and modifications, and
be patient. I bet they will answer you!


In order to help you, I've mailed Greg, which seems to be the developer
responsible for sshdfilter, to let him aware of this on going work. Let's just
wait his answer.

Meanwhile, you can do some stuff to show sponsors your undertanding of Fedora
Guidelines. Help other packagers having their work improved, and improve
yourself through reviewing informally other review requests!
