I don't mind helping maintain pycapnp. It will make it easier for me if I 
can pull over most/all of my current changes.

Some things that I've done

   - Removed most of the references to deprecated capnproto functions 
   (there are a few left that are a bit tricky that have to do with the .capnp 
   file parser imports)
   - Added Windows support (there seems to be a bug related to the 
   capnproto timer that's erroring out the last few tests)
   - asyncio support for Python (this enables TLS support for both client 
   and servers)
   - Python 3.7+ support (earlier versions don't work well with asyncio and 
   will take a bunch of work to make work)
   - Updated the minimum version to capnproto 0.7.0
   - Moved from Travis to Github Actions
   - No more git flow
   - Updated to C++14 (fixes lots of issues, including those that used to 
   be there with macOS)

This is my github https://github.com/haata

I don't have many more changes planned. Well, beyond fixing new issues that 
pop-up, adding support for new Python/OS options and the last few Windows 
test errors. I also want to cleanup the documentation a bit and add a 
proper changelog.

I'm also not sure how the package uploads work for 
https://pypi.org/project/pycapnp/ and user accounts there. I have my forked 
version here: https://pypi.org/project/pycapnp-async/
