How is that related to open source and friendliness? It's common courtesy
to subscribe to a mailing list before trying to send messages to it. Many
mailing lists would actually just reject mails in such cases.

As I mentioned before, the code has worked fine and this is the first report
we are getting regarding this issue. I am not ruling out a regression though.

Using github pull requests is actually the standard for a large number
of open source projects these days. It simplifies reviewing and merging
of patches as opposed to sending patches over mailing lists.

Yes, that machine is offline these days. I noticed the wrong URL myself
when I was sourcing the link with the file contents. I will update the
wiki shortly.

I seem to remember that netmdcli is also able to upload ATRAC-SP tracks
from the MZ-RH1, I think "netmd recv" should do it.

Tracks from classic MiniDiscs are not encrypted and actual NetMD devices
don't support upload in hardware. The upload feature in the MZ-RH1
is exclusive to this device (and its variation MZ-MH200) and is designed
for classic MDs only.
