1 Hi!
2
3 I'm the only maintainer left within the Gentoo Vim Project [1] and would need
4 some help to maintain the vim editor along with the app-vim/ category.
5
6 vim and vim packages are low-maintenance: a version bump here, a security fix
7 there. vim ebuilds aren't that complicated. vim eclasses have to be migrated to
8 EAPI 8. I would like the eclasses to support neovim at some point too (yeah
9 it's about time).
10
11 It has been suggested to disband the project and return all vim packages to
12 maintainer-needed since, well, I'm the only person in it. To be honest, I would
13 like the project structure to remain as-is as I think disbanding the project
14 may make matters worse.

16 Feel free to join the #vim IRC channel on irc.libera.chat or respond to this
17 email if you're interested.
