Re: [hobbit] hobbit-holidays.cfg not present

["Josh Luthman" <josh (at) imaginenetworksllc.com>]

The mailing list is definitely active.  There is only one developer,
Henrik, to my knowledge.

It is far from dead.  Pretty sure there is code changes at least once
a week, often several times a week.  One developer getting it this far
is, as far as I am concerned, something to be proud of.

About the Windows stuff...I am not even going to touch it coming from
such an un-objective view =P  You have BBWIN as a client which should
cover what you need, though.
