Re: Prepared update libyaml-snake-java



Hello Markus,
hello Tony,
hello to all

please REMOVE all the updates I did at java-team.

I will do them in my Repo. I will upload them again when I have enough
experience and knowledge to test all the reverse dependencies.

But this can take years.

Kind regards

Mechtilde
