Hi,

suppose that an accepted and officially distributed Boost library has
become unmaintained, meaning that

 a) the code is not developed any further,

 b) reported bugs are not fixed, confirmed, or otherwise responded
    to, and

 c) questions on the mailing list aren't answered,

then what is the procedure to deal with that situation?

Take care,
Peter
