Hi!

> This is not ofono I am forking, merely MMSD.

So first, sorry, I was confused, I assumed mmsd is part of ofono.

I guess Marcel Holtmann is right person to talk to. I put him in Cc
list. I'm also Ccing Denis and phone-devel list.

Well, kernelnewbies and netdev mailing list are not really right
places to ask.

Ok, so you did quite a good job.

I still hope Marcel will reply. If not, I believe it makes sense to
ask kernel.org admins (perhaps konstantin(a)linuxfoundation.org ?) who
is maintainer of mmsd repository and how to reach them, or perhaps how
to take over, as it is not exactly active.

It increasingly looks like you did right.

You still may want to contact linuxfoundations admins -- for example
Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org> .

[PATCH 0/9] Updates for mmsd

[Chris Talbot]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 851 bytes --]

Hello,

I am submitting a series of patches for mmsd that I have been working
on. The patches have been successfully tested on PostmarketOS, Debian
on Mobile (Mobian), PureOS, and Fedora.

The patches fall into two catagories:
1) core fixes to mmsd to get it to work with several carriers
(including T-Mobile USA, AT&T USA, Telus Canada, and a Swedish
Carrier). 
2) A new plugin to enable mmsd functionality on Modem Manager. 

The Patches have been tested on both the Pinephone and the Librem 5,
and have been confirmed tested accross all major US carriers (as well
as several minor US carriers), Canadian carriers, French carriers, and
Swedish carriers. They been been likely tested on more carriers, but
the author can only confirm the above ones (as he has gotten positive
feedback for them).

Forking on MMSD

[Chris Talbot]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 992 bytes --]

Hello All,

In talking to the Debian Developer Mr. Federico Ceratto, since I have
been unable to get a hold of the Ofono Maintainers, the best course of
action for packaging mmsd into Debian is to simply fork the project and
submit my version upstream for packaging in Debian. My repository is
here: https://source.puri.sm/kop316/mmsd/

I am sending this so the relavent parties are aware of this, and to
indicate that I no longer intend on trying to get a hold of upstream
mmsd to try and submit patches.

For the Purism Employees, I am additionally asking for permission to
keep hosting mmsd on https://source.puri.sm/ . I have been extremely
appreciative in using it and I am happy to keep it there, but I want to
be neighboorly and ask if it is okay for me to keep it there. If it is
not, I completely understand and I am fine with moving it to a new
host.

If you have any questions, comments, or concern, please reach out to
me.

Hi,

I would really like to avoid a fork, it's not worth doing dual work. Did you ping ofono devs at irc?  Also have you sendt upstream patches? If a fork is the way you want to go, you will need to rename it as the existing packages need to follow upstream, we can't just rip an existing packages away from upstream.

Best regards,
Marius

Ofono maintainers are normally pretty responsive, and yes, you seem to
be cc-ing the right list.

I don't think forking ofono is good idea.
