Firstly, can I thank Leon for all the help he has provided to the lwIP
project over recent years, and I hope he'll continue to be involved in
some capacity.

I suspect both!  As no one else has stepped forward, and I agree with
Leon that a leader is important, I'll volunteer to do the job for a
while.  Although I no longer use lwIP myself (and its similarity to my
day job means I prefer not to commit code to ensure there is no risk of
being accused of contaminating lwIP with someone else's intellectual
property) I'm happy to oversee things for the time being.

I am always open to help from others, and should anyone else feel that
they could do the job better I'd be very pleased to welcome them.
