>Description:
Firstly, I apologize if this is the wrong communication channel.  The folks on #freebsd at freenode informed me this was the proper place to bring things like this up.

I have tried a few times to find the current maintainer of libfetch with no avail.  I would like to contribute a few minor bug fixes / improvements to libfetch, and would like to discuss the possibility of accepting patches to allow compilation on Linux (I am unclear if this is allowed by FreeBSD policy or not).

Anyway, I am currently maintaining a port/fork/what-have-you of libfetch for linux, and would like to collaborate with the current maintainers, instead of doing my own thing over here.

Thanks in advance,
Aaron Griffin

With my follow-up close this ticket, the reporter had been informed that

DES is the one for libfetch.

 Hello Aaron,
 
 Thanks for taking the time to seek for our help and report this on the
 forums, though this is not the proper medium to get this help. You instead
 should look into
 http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions or
 http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers to get the help
 you need.
 
 That said: I think that DES (des@) is the one you are looking for..
 
 Regards,
 Remko
