<div dir="ltr">Thanks, Leah! If you happen to know anyone... ;)<div><br></div><div>Here is one update: the awesome John Szakmeister has volunteered to take over as the primary maintainer of nose, and nose will be going into pure maintenance mode. This means that half of the problem is solved (yay!), but also that the need for nose2 leadership and contributions is that much greater, as we're going to try to more actively cajole nose users into moving to nose2, and nose2 is from the next release of nose forward, the only place where new features will come about.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Many thanks are due to John for the work he's put into nose over the past year, and for volunteering for yet more work. :)</div><div><br></div><div>JP</div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra">

<div><br></div><div>Over the past few years my time for work on nose/2 has dwindled to effectively nothing, and it has become painfully clear from watching the projects on github accumulate unreviewed patches that nose and nose2 need new leadership -- a person or group of people with time and interest and knowledge of the code base (or willingness to learn it), and the ability to nurture community and respond to pull requests in a timely fashion. </div>
