Benoit, to my mind, you've been the multiload submaintainer for some
time. Feel free to commit to multiload, but obviously use your
discretion.

Apologies for my poor performance as maintainer this year, I've
simply been too busy, and when I've not been busy, I've been too
exhausted. I am still trying to get a team of people willing to
assist with maintanence tasks together, although so far I'm not
having a lot of luck. I don't want to dump another module onto
Vincent, Elijah, Lucas because no one else will maintain it.
