I mailed them, after 1 month no change. I would not bother with creating 
patches next time.

I have same experience with pretty much every open source project, 
everybody talks on list, nobody works. If i send patch, it takes months 
to review even 1 or 2 line patch. Fork is necessity for any serious 
development.
