I would not mind moving into the role of release coordinator.
I can think of several of the unofficial patches that could
be rolled in to make a dandy 1.94.6 release, as well as a few
bug and security fixes and "unsupported" utilities. :)

If you do move the development effort to sourceforge, are you
considering any changes to a GNU license?  Would greatcircle
still host the mailing lists?

There were a couple years where I was intimately familiar with
the inner workings of majordomo, and I still have a back burner
project to make majordomo LDAP aware.  I intend to use an on/off
switch for this feature, if I ever get time to finish it. :(

I just don't want to see majordomo die of neglect, and I prefer
the simplicity of 1.9x to the complexity of "][".
