Re: Petition to look into the more serious bugs

 

Hello Moritz,

We are also concerned about the lack of activity on the project and we are
looking for contributors.
Unfortunately, several major bugs cannot be either reproduced or triaged, as
we are severely lacking skills in debugging.

So the project remains in semi-active state, as most of the developers
either have lost the will to continue contributing or have lack of time.

I'd like apoligize for this kind of situation.
