I hadn't checked there in ages because the flotsam-based code that comes in the modlos block for moodle just worked so I stuck with that, plus the fact that nobody seemed to be actively maintaining the git-hosted code since Sept. last year.

Oh believe me, I sleep - I'm just permanently lagged (not even by jet).

You're right about it not being maintained - the creator (mcortez) is busy with other things.  However, I needed it for 
my own purposes when I upgraded so I made various fixes.  But I'm desperately trying not to become the maintainer since 
I just don't have the time :)

I was very surprised to find it broken, tbh - it shows how few people had upgraded past 0.6.9.

Yeah, please do report back.  If there are obvious problems I might get time to fix them.  Actually, the best place for 
bug reports might be http://code.google.com/p/flotsam/issues/list rather than here or in the opensim mantis.
