if GUB is used, who is maintaining and/or working on it?
Almost exactly a year ago, there was a sizable "Please test gub" effort
initiated by Knut Petersen.

Clear instructions were given for exactly how to test GUB, and just that
thread seems to have involved about 16 people.
More recently, it looks like Jonas Hahnfeld's work with Python 3
migration involved quite a number of changes to GUB.
From the notes I've kept, Jan Nieuwenhuizen proposed replacing GUB with
something based on Guix.

That idea was mentioned a few times since, but I can't recall if
GUB-replacement discussions have moved beyond that or not.
