Actually, Chris, Nicholas, this is the EXACT reasoning behind Nick's 
original adoption of popt from me:
    http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2002-06/msg00069.html
It "went with" rpm, which Nick was ITP'ing, so it made sense for him to 
take over popt maintainership.

I think it still makes sense -- so if cgf has taken over rpm, IMO popt 
maintainership should also go with it.  But obviously, it's up to you guys.
