Alan,
thanks for handing over maintainership for xauth. Yes, I will read the
given documents and take care of it.
Kind regards,
Tilmann Bubeck

Alan,
I would step up to be the maintainer for xauth if no one else is
willing to do so.
I haven't seen anyone else show any interest in xauth in the two months
since
you said that, so I guess you're it. Enjoy!
If you don't already have a freedesktop.org account, you'll need one:
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/AccountRequests
And you'll probably want to read up on the X.Org Development practices:
http://www.x.org/wiki/DeveloperStart
(though not everything in that page is fully up to date)
And for details on the Xauth mechanisms, see:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libXau/tree/README
http://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.7/doc/man/man3/Xau.3.xhtml
(For instance, note that first one describes FamilyWild as being
originally
intended solely for XDMCP communication, not for storing in .Xauthority
files.)
