Thanks,
I am aware of this, we have since setup a new website, mailing list and as 
you have found, git repo. Stefan has been nominated as the maintainer by 
Jonas on a previous mail thread.

The issue (as we see it) is that neither Stefan or I have signed PGP keys 
by anyone in the web of trust.

I sent this patch set with a cover lett trying to explain of the 
situation trying to get some help.  Your reponses are very helpful.

Do you think I should just send "git pull" reuqests to Linus with a self 
signed pgp key and eplaination to see how it goes?
