+
+All versions of kdat prior to KDE-2.x were developed and/or
+supported by Sean Vyain (svyain@mail.tds.net). Starting with
+KDE-2.x, Larry Widman (kdat@cardiothink.com) volunteered
+to serve as maintainer because the package was about to be
+dropped for lack of a maintainer.
+
+It is unclear what happened to Sean. One email correspondent
+reported that he had been killed in a car crash. The KDE
+coordinator said that multiple attempts to contact him by email
+had been unsuccessful.
+
+Anyone who has information about Sean Vyain, who has made many
+contributions to the Open Source movement, would be appreciated
+and may be directed to Larry Widman (email address above).
+
+Re legal stuff. The copyright to the kdat source code up to
+when maintainership changed is owned by Sean Vyain. If he is
+in fact deceased, the copyright ownership presumably passes to
+his estate. Any representative of that estate should feel free
+to contact the current kdat maintainer in case licensing issues
+should arise in the future.
