Hi, Mikhail and everyone else involved here,

The misc/jive port was actually removed at the request of core at .  Please
can you raise your concerns with core privately, rather than letting
this thread get out of hand (as it seems likely to do) in public.

	Cheers,

	Matthew, with hat core-secretary.
