This stuff is really old and in quite poor shape.
Does anyone still use it?

If not, I think it's appropriate to let it simmer
in staging for a few releases.

Is this really unmaintained?

Fine with me, but you need a message/TODO file that says if someone
needs/wants it, to ask you, and it will be moved back.

Care to add that to the patch and resend it?

thanks,

No listed MAINTAINER, nothing but drive-by
cleanups in git history.

The company quicknet.net seems out of business.
Its website is dead since 2004 according to wayback.

Some of these cards are on ebay right now
but I don't know if asterisk or any other
VOIP software still supports this stuff.

This stuff is really old and in quite poor shape.
Does anyone still use it?

If not, I think it's appropriate to let it simmer
in staging for a few releases.
