bug#29108: 25.3; ERC SASL support

[Stefan Kangas]

[ysph@psy.ai bounced. Trying another email address.]

Hi,

We are looking into adding SASL support to ERC in Emacs, which would
be a useful feature for our users.  We note that you have done some
previous work in this area (erc-sasl.el), and that you already have
copyright assignments for Emacs on file.

We note that this link is dead:
https://github.com/jane-lx/erc-sasl

The best link we could find for erc-sasl.el was this:
https://gitlab.com/psachin/erc-sasl/blob/master/erc-sasl.el

Could you please help us by answering these two questions:

1. Would you have any objections if we included your code in Emacs?
2. Is the code in the second link above the code written by you, or
has it been changed since?  Are you the sole contributor to that file?

I've included our recent discussion about this below for your
information.  Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas
