Mike - Very sorry to hear of this diagnosis, but you never know what cures are around 
the corner! As a metastatic melanoma survivor, I just hope I can hang on long enough 
for them to perfect enough treatments that some combination will work on me if/when 
it comes back. Many thanks for your HUGE contribution to ham radio and best wishes 
for many more years ahead of you.

Hi Mike,

So very sorry about the diagnosis... Hope you are able to get any 
treatment/medication necessary (though, as you say, with ALS the future is 
unknown).

If any assistance with Hamlib is needed, as an (ir)regular contributor I can 
try to provide my help to any new maintainer(s). So feel free to share my 
contact details if you think it would be useful.

73,
Mikael OH3BHX

Just for you information
About 85,000 lines all in C
Needs GNU compilers so we use JTSDK to compile on Windows and default compilers

There are bindings for python, perl, tcl, Visual Basic, php, and LUA

If one is not comfortable with C pointers than one really shouldn't be doing

Are you a one man group or do you have helpers?  Surely there should be
some hotshot developers who are hams and who could take this on!

How many lines of code and what types of code files besides vanilla C
source?
     - I have an older C compiler.  I would entertain upgrading that.
     - I have experience with C.

What compiler(s) are required (Microsoft, GNU, etc.?)

Pointers in C can get fairly exotic.  What is your code like in that regard?

How do you protect against loss of files?  Some code repository, such as
GIT?

How often are there bugs that need fixing?

How much information does one need to have about all the rig types in

More questions from me may follow if you can't find someone AND  _IF_  I
