This fork is not from me and IHMO not a fork at all, because the DAM
code is not repeated.

I am not going to publish the contents of private emails on a public
list. But your question shows that you are on the viewpoint that I did
not try to contact the authors at all. You should have at least asked
about this before posing such a question.

enet_dam did not work with DAM 1.x since many months.

I did not test it for newer DAM versions. If someone finds it useful he
can help to gather the missing informations.

I am not the right person to be asked about this. You must ask the
authors by yourself. They are free to use and integrate this code.

I have informed the authors before I have started to fix bugs for the
one or enhance the other extensions.
