I'm going to have to email [EMAIL PROTECTED] to see what they think. They are
afterall the ones affected by this.

Perhaps. I think a reasonable approach might be:
- day 1: email [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and say you will be taking over the project in 30 days if
noone objects
- day 10: reminder
- day 20: reminder
- day 30: reminder
- day 31: clnet admin replies with confirmation of new ownership
If, in that time, noone on the -devel list nor the owner replies the
project is either abondoned or it needs a new owner anyways, IMHO of
course.
I may even toss in there to add to the latest news (ie RSS ie planet
lisp) that takeover procedures have been initiated for that project.

That's a great point. I think probably the major motivation here is
to be able to apply patches and put out new releases.
