The only possible reference to an author is "martijn".  I did find a mailing address in https://tldp.org/HOWTO/pdf/Adv-Routing-HOWTO.pdf but got a non-delivery report for it.  I found another email address and sent email but haven't received a reply in four days.  The reason for updating the current content is that:   
   - It is terse and doesn't cover the full subject
   - It is confusing if not contradictory in that it refers to different rp_filter modes without distinguishing between them.
   - Mentions disabling the feature but doesn't explain how.
I have prepared a replacement, what is the next step?

Hi Leroy,
the source of the file is here:

https://github.com/tLDP/LDP/blob/master/LDP/howto/docbook/Adv-Routing-HOWTO.sgml

You need to update this source file in linuxdoc format, we do not accept OpenOffice submissions, unfortunately. 

Please just fork the repository as you did and create new Pull Request with updated Adv-Routing-HOWTO.sgml file - you can use any plain text editor for this. You can get more help reading this document, which does not cover GIT submission yet, but covers SGML files maintenance:

https://tldp.org/LDP/LDP-Author-Guide/html/index.html

cheers,
Serge
