-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I've prepared an update for p5-POE-Component-IRC bringing it into this
year (the last update was about two years ago, in 8/2003). The last
update that the maintainer made was also their only update -- bringing
it up to 2.6. Every update since then (aside from a pkg-comment removal)
has seen a maintainer timeout and has been contributed by Mathieu
Arnold. What's the proper procedure in a situation like this? I can't
contact the maintainer because their host

1. doesn't have any MX records at all (*sigh*)
2. doesn't even accept connections on port 25 (refusing them)

I would be glad to step up as maintainer of the port, if no one has any
objections.

Best Regards,
Christopher Nehren
