Hello Xavier,

i read on your site that you have stopped supporting PUK and that you are evaluating whether or not to make it Open Source.

i am interested in porting PUK to C++.  my primary interest in PUK is the method that it uses to share popup blacklists.  i think that this is a very powerful feature.  i'd like to broaden the way in which this information is propagated.  my vision is to create a p2p-style network for sharing popup blacklists and eventually ActiveX control blacklists similar to the way razor shares spam info.  i'd like to make this an Open Network accessible to all popup filtering applications and even web browsers.  

if you are interested please contact me.

i noticed that their is a PUK project on SourceForge[1], but they do not have any code[2].

are you affiliated with this project in any way?

[1] http://sourceforge.net/projects/puk
[2] http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/puk

Yes. I opened the project and I'm still waiting for the assigned developer to publish the sources.

I'm getting quite desperate since it’s been over 3 months that I gave him the code.

Do you have any experience working at SourceForge?
Have you used CVS before?

yes.  i'm the lead dev on several projects there:

Ok... looks like we're going to close a deal then...

I would prefer if we continue our conversation via email.
Please send me an email at support@xfx.net and I'll let you know my proposal.

np.  will do.
