I'd be quite ready to transmit wdiff duties, or even have them stolen
from me :-).
I think they have already been stolen :). I recently received word
from rms that I was appointed to be the new maintainer of wdiff. The
reason for the change was that I've got some spare cycles to put into
wdiff and ideas for a couple new features I'd like to implement. As I
understand it, not many people have had time to spend on wdiff lately
so it seemed logical to make me the maintainer.
I don't mind if you'd rather be the maintainer. As long as I can get
my patches added in a timely fashion, I'm fairly indifferent.
