NonGNU ELPA: taking over/forking ws-butler

[Sean Whitton]

Hello,

I wrote the following e-mail to Le Wang a fortnight ago and have
received no response.  And he has not been active on github, where
ws-butler was developed, in some years.

Stefan, do you think it would be okay if I go ahead and essentially fork
it by maintaining it out of nongnu-elpa.git?

Thanks.

Hello Le,

I love ws-butler, as do many others.

ws-butler has a number of open issues and could generally use some
maintainance work.
Would you consider letting me take over as maintainer, please?

I've been maintaining ws-butler in the official Debian repositories
since 2016 and I have commit access to upstream Emacs, GNU ELPA and
NonGNU ELPA.

I'd leave you as Author, and add a Maintainer line for myself.
You could either grant me access to your repository on github, or
transfer the repository to me, which automatically establishes a
redirect.  In the latter case I could give you push access so you could
still make changes.

Thank you for considering this.
