You should probably ask that question to the Void developers :-) We actually reached out on the Void IRC channel a few days ago, saying that we would be happy to help if needed. I got a pm reply from Gottox, who said that their main problem at the moment seems to be re-acquiring access to the github account that contains all the packages. Unfortunately there is little we can do on that front, but I really hope that they will find a way and continue with the development ASAP. Obviously, if anybody knows of ways in which we can help Void, well, just shout.
