Hi Francesco,
It is sad to hear such news.
I am rather new here but still I would like to thank you a lot for your
engagement in the project!
It would be great if you can stay available for consulting purposes for
further developments.
I am in fear that transcode is slowly going to die. How many "active"
developers are there at the moment? How long would you thing it takes to get
familiar with the code for a new maintainer? And a last question: How much
time did you roughly spend on the project?
Regards!
Georg
