Unresponsive maintainer for libical

	Hi,
I realized that the maintainer of libical, Debarshi Ray, seem to be
unresponsive for quite a long time, not doing updates for libical.

There are filled two bugs with a request to do an update, the first [1]
from 2009-09-27 notifying about a release of 0.44, and then
the second [2] from 2010-08-31, notification about 0.46 upstream release
(upstream skipped 0.45). These updates are fixing also other issues
which might be visible in applications using it.

There are opened only 4 bugs (including these two) against libical in
Fedora.

I know I'm not following the NonResponsiveMaintainer policy closely, but
I believe, in this particular case, it would be with no gain.

I'm fine to take ownership of the libical package and do releases for
it.
	Bye,
	Milan Crha
