Generally, if a document is on the unmaintained list, it's there
because the author specifically has said that he/she no longer
wishes to maintain the document, or the author cannot be contacted.
If you have made a good faith effort to contact the author,
I believe you can take over this particular document. Perhaps David
Lawyer can comment on this (from a licesning perspective).
I *think* this author has also authored a book or two:
Linux Socket Programming by Sean Walton
ISBN: 0672319357
http://www.linuxsocket.org/
I'm not 100% certain it's the same person.
I can put your name on the list as the new maintainer. Note that
the FAQ is in HTML right now and should be converted to SGML or XML
when updated.
thanks in advance for your efforts,
