Hi Charles,
I'm very much willing to help out with contributing to the project.
Other than that PR, I already have at least a couple of more
changes/fixes that I would like to contribute. One of them requires
Windows OS testing (to make sure the patch does fix the issue), for
which I asked a question on the dev list on how to go about it (maybe a
central build system which runs the PR changes against the latest).
As I noted in another reply, I don't claim to have enough knowledge of
the Ivy project ecosystem or the Apache process to make the project
active again, but I do plan to help out in any way I can in those efforts.

One thing to note -- the bar for being admitted as a maintainer, and thus
having the opportunity to help guide the project's future yourself, is by
no means unattainable.
I was offered the opportunity after about 2-3 reasonable-quality patches,
if memory serves; unfortunately, I shortly thereafter changed jobs to an
employer not using Ivy, and thus no longer have the ability to contribute
on company time.
If you're interested in helping to revive the project -- I can't personally
extend the opportunity on my own, but if you continue to offer patches at
the same quality as your recent work, you'll have my +1 when it comes to a
vote. :)

The past few weeks I've been trying to contribute by fixing some issues
that have been noted in JIRA. I've opened a pull request with a fix a
while back[1] and also have asked a few questions about some other
issues that I am thinking to work on. However, there has been no
response, neither to the pull request nor to the question.
Is there any public roadmap, goals and future plans for the Ivy project?
I would like to continue contributing, but if there's no real plans to
continue development in the project, then I would just end up wasting my
time.
