Midnight Commander Development Revived

richlv writes "Popular Unix console file manager Midnight Commander has experienced a stall for the last few years. Most distributions (including the conservative Slackware) shipped patched packages or snapshots. Despite that, everybody had a favorite bug or two — either inability to specify ssh connection port, or problems with interrupted FTP sessions. Or maybe copying of larger datasets. Or maybe the infamous 'shell is still active' message, which often brought unexpected changes of current directory with it. Whatever it was, we either cursed it every time, or learned to live with it. It seems that finally something many were waiting for has happened — there's some activity on mc development. Check out the new homepage, and let's hope revival is both healthy and lengthy."

Okay.. thanks for taking down my/our webserver.. however most of the people will be interested in the sourcecode (at least I hope so).

For those which only want to have the code, please have a look on this git mirror:

  http://repo.or.cz/w/midnight-commander.git

as I've currently took down the webserver because it makes no sense to let him running this way. I'll search for a solution as fast as possible.
