To be totally honest with you, I have been asking for someone who
actively uses captive portal technology to take over lead maintenance on
these projects for years. I'm not engaged with community wireless
projects myself at the moment, don't have the time to manage software
that I don't use, and feel that the NoCat software projects deserve to
be maintained by someone who is involved and does have time, or else be
relegated to history.

So far several people have volunteered in theory but in practice no one
has stepped forward to assume responsibility. Meanwhile, a couple of
other projects have gained momentum to provide similar functionality,
like WiFiDog. WiFiDog does have a bit of current activity around it and
appears (at least in the documentation) to offer functionality similar
to NoCatAuth/Splash.

I appreciate the interest of people who have inquired lately about
NoCatAuth and NoCatSplash and I wish I had a better answer than this.
Responses and commentary welcome!
