I'm using some autoconf macros for many of my projects, which have
this in the header:

  dnl autoconf macros for OCaml
  dnl by Olivier Andrieu
  dnl from a configure.in by Jean-Christophe Filliatre,
  dnl from a first script by Georges Mariano

I've also heavily modified them myself.  I'd now like to get these
upstream into autoconf, and perform a number of maintenance tasks on
them (such as changing them so they are suitable for cross-
compilation).

Is there an official repository and/or maintainer for these macros?

Rich.

Not that I'm aware of, but I've based some recent build script of mine
(OCamlBZ2, IIRC) on the autoconf macros whose copyright lines are
exactly as above.

... and of course I've changed them as well myself :)

What about sharing the maintenance?
A project on the ocaml forge would be fine for me, or anything else
you see fit.

Cheers.
