Just for the record, I didn't mean to say that mc should have only one maintainer who will contribute 20 hpw on a sustained basis. I was implying that this is my estimate for the minimal amount of workload to keep the project in a reasonable shape, but whether it comes from one person, or from 3 collaborating maintainers, I don't care :-) Of course, the more maintainers there are, the better, and I'd say 3x7 is actually better than 1x20 if only for the bus factor. On the other hand, I don't think that <7 hpw per person is very meaningful. In the last 2 weeks I struggled to extract >10 hpw, and they were gone in a split second. Anyways, thank you very much for your work on mc codebase, and g-t, which is still my favorite terminal emulator that I'm using every day; I can see the effect of your work very directly in terms of annoying bugs being fixed that have been haunting me for quite awhile... -- Sincerely yours, Yury V.
