I think you kick '98 to the curb and let the 5 people who use it maintain their own support for it. Bit-rot is a real problem with any code that goes mostly unexercised. I'm thinking maybe the '98 people should simply fork their own version of Sqlite. Then find their own '98 maintainer, instead of trying to force the job onto Dr Hipp.
