Image_Tools: is anybody working on it?

Hi! My name is Charles Brunet. I'm a new subscriber to pear-dev mailing list, but I already have played with PHP and PEAR for some years, and, from time to time, I post bug reports. I'm actually playing with Image_Tools package, which could have a great potential if some functions and tools were added. I already submitted some patches on the bug system, but I didn't get any feedback from the developers. The latest release is still beta, and is more than one year old. The cvs haven't been updated for more that 14 months. Do you know if the developers of this package are still alive? I don't think I have enough time to invest to take the responsibility of this package, but some feedback about my patches would be appreciated. Thank you, Charles Brunet.
