If there's real need to continue the work, I'll support the work. But I'd
like to ask someone else to take over or co-edit the spec.

Yes. We'd like to standardize WS/HTTP/2.0 eventually. It depends on how
quickly HTTP/2.0 is standardized and adopted and how SPDY is going to
evolve, which protocol is stable, ready and good for running experiment,
etc. We plan to coordinate with httpbis and SPDY team to figure out how to
drive standardization and implementation.
