No.  I simply don't know what your talking about here.

The former HP maintainer, Jeff Law, stepped down because he realised he 
was no longer able to allocate the time and resources needed to respond 
promptly to HP GDB questions, problems and patches.  Keep in mind that 
Jeff is a member of the GCC Steering Committee, a very active GCC 
developer, and one of the sources/gcc.gnu.org maintainers (I believe he 
also manages to hold down a day job :-).

In stepping back from GDB/HP maintainership (never an easy and definitly 
a brave decision) Jeff has opened the way for others to advance the 
GDB-HP code he wrote.
