RE: Info-ZIP maintainer

Greg,

I don't have a whole lot of time, and I know almost nothing about Unix and
it's relatives, but I would be willing to at least try to get the patches in
for unzip that have occurred since the last release, if someone has them and
can send them to me.

At least that way we can get something together, and if someone out there
can check out the Unix version we could stumble along until someone who has
more knowledge than I do about Unix decides they have the time to really
take it over.

Mike

Note that Ed Gordon has already taken over as Zip maintainer (with
some fairly significant input from Rainer Nausdat, I believe).  And
there's always the slim possibility that whatever's going on with
Christian is "temporary" and will clear up by then.

But insofar as the primary definition of "maintainer" is "one who
maintains," I think we can safely say UnZip is currently unmaintained
(except by various BSD and Linux distros) and therefore up for grabs.
