As many people have noticed, the Kerberos FAQ (which can be found at
http://www.cam.ov.com/misc/krb-faq.html), has been suffering from extreme
staleness as of late (for example, the newest version it talks about
is beta 5).

Obviously, someone needs to do some serious updating on it.  I'm willing
to take on this task.

I've sent email to the address mentioned in the FAQ (ov-info@cam.ov.com)
saying that I would be willing to take over the maintenance of the FAQ,
but I never received a reply.

I'm trying to do the "right" thing here and not step on anyone's toes,
but I'm at a loss as to how to proceed from here.  I'd really hate to
have TWO versions of the Kerberos FAQ.  Does anyone know who (if anyone)
maintains the FAQ nowadays, and how to get in touch with them?  If the
FAQ is truely dead, would anyone object if I just made a new one?
