I notice from https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/madwimax no upload has been done for quite a while. There is also Debian bug reports with patches.

Hi @petterreinholdtsen, Sorry for the delay. I haven't seen any WiMAX networks for quite a while, so I'm not personally using this software anymore. I actually thought that the technology was completely replaced by LTE. Looks like no. Do you use it? Just curious. I certainly can review and merge pull requests.

I do not use it, I just am brushing up orphaned Debian packages, and did a small update to <URL: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/madwimax > and thought it best to try to pass Debian patches to you. Lacking an email address, I tried a github issue. :)

According to <URL: https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=madwimax >, the package is installed on at least 5 machines, and at least 1 of these ran programs in the package last week.
