Thanks Dan! I will help in any way I can as well, just say the word.
Shubes, hope all is well with you.

I have tried contacting "Shubes" several times over the past few
months, to no avail. He's either busy or incapacitated. It has been
since before the new year that he was last heard from here, or privately.
I have control of the DNS, so if we want to move anything we can -- we
just can't make any actual changes to the domain registration. The
domain registration was renewed this past May, but I strongly suspect
that was an automated transaction. I am already listed on the
registration as the Tech ID, so if Eric is incapacitated we should be
able to convince DynDNS (the registrar) to let us in -- but other than
renewing it, there really doesn't need to be anything changed there.
There are likely also "accounts" (git?) that may need to be "recovered".
Never the less, it is time to regain some direction and progress ...
so, I will try again to reach Eric. I am not comfortable just "taking"
the project from him, but agree that there are many changes and
updates that need to be incorporated. (Not the least of which is both
"official" COS6 & COS7 support.)
I have the expertise to take "ownership" of the project, but not
really that much available time. Never the less, just as Jake (the
original "master" of the QMT project) chose his successor, I would
imagine it will be up to Eric to choose his.

Johannes,
Thanks! I'm really not sure how to proceed at this point. I suppose I
should contact EricS again and ask his status. I'm fairly sure that he
gets the email from the qmailtoaster list so if you're out there EricS
please let us know your thoughts and/or status. As QMT lead EricS knows
a heck of a lot more than I do concerning everything Qmail and it would
be sad if he weren't lead of the project any longer as I don't feel
adequate to take the project over. I'm wondering if the wiki like the
mirrors couldn't, or shouldn't, be spread over multiple servers and that
wouldn't burden you with sole responsibility for hosting. This is the
primary reason I would like to get my CentOS 7/QMT rpms to the QMT
mirrors. This way if something were to happen to anyone of us, the
community would not burdened with the prospect of putting everything
back together in their absence. I think it also wise to have multiple
people in the QMT community able to access the domain registrar (and the
QMT domain for the same reason). Anyway, those are my thoughts.

Eric,
we should ask Eric Shubert to hand it all over; I could offer to take
over the domain and also the hosting.
Best regards,

Edwin,
IMHO, yes, CentOS 6 is stable. I'm using it in production. I think it
would be a good idea to add it to the wiki.
However, I'm not sure of the wiki's status. Someone's paying for the
domain name, I'm not sure who that is or how long he/she will be
doing so.
