I bet there are more pressing things competing for his time now. :-) Examining the CVS logs for tcpslice, it's not really changing that fast. Most of these changes are bugfixes. Even if this were not the case, it's not really the type of tool where we need bleeding-edge imports. I could probably do this, given reviews/approval by my src/ mentors. Bruce.
