Hi,

Axel here, sorry for being afk for a looong time. More specifically, sorry
for being away without giving proper notice, trying to get someone else to
do maintainership, or anything of the sort. What happened was basically
nothing interesting. Had a lot to do at work for a while and had to stop
reading private email, and by the time things calmed down the backlog of
email in my private inbox was so huge (several thousands of emails) that I
was too lazy to start dealing with it. It took a mate of mine to sit here
beside me fixing a fish + midnight commander issue to get started again
(Thanks Claes).

If someone feels they'd do a better job as project maintainer, feel free to
say so, I'd be happy to work something out. I'm planning on working on fish,
fixing a few minor issues here and there. But a maintainer, co-maintainer,
release manager or whatever anyone feels like stepping up to help out with
would be very welcome. I'm going through the patches and suggestions sent
over the latest ~11 months right now.

Once again, sorry for being a black hole, and volunteers are welcome!

Axel
