Dear Greg and Shane (and everyone else who could weigh in),

I would like to kindly reiterate my question of Fri, Aug 18, 2023 at
9:29 AM ET: can we make GitHub (https://github.com/apache/bloodhound) our
main development repository and if so, what are your expectations in terms
of number of pull requests per period of time so that Bloodhound stays off
the attic?

Thanks,
Nikolay Tsanov
