How about (from the header of bsd-init.txt): AUTHOR: Marc Heerdink <[email protected]> All hints are either maintained by their specific authors or not maintained at all. In special cases you can ask the hint editors (see hints.linuxfromscratch.org for mail addresses), but unless the author is unreachable and a change is very important (or trivial) they won't usually mess with hints without the author's consent.
