I agree and I apologize for the unpleasant situation: it’s clear that I haven’t been up to the task for several years already. I’ll discuss with Andy how I can formally leave the seat to someone with more energy, whom I’ll be happy to help learn practices and conventions. If someone is interested, please get in touch with us! While Andy focuses on major improvements to the compiler and VM with a long-term vision, I think it would be great to also have people on the maintainer team focusing on more day-to-day operations: incremental improvements, bug fixes, etc. I think we’re lucky that there’ve been a number of talented contributors chiming in over the last couple of years; let’s take advantage of this, at last! Thanks, Ludo’.
