If Adrian [ http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/11/9/262 ] does not want to be
the maintainer, ask if you can take over, including the name.
This smells a lot like the RPM case [ http://lwn.net/Articles/196523/ ]
however, it does not look like anyone is going to call it rpm-ng just
because the original name is owned by the last maintainer.
