I've said this before once (or maybe twice):
I can't pick up development on my own since I don't have the time, but
if there was someone else (than me) actively engaging in the maintainer
role, I think I could do a small bit of coding to fix stuff that annoys
me.

That said, the porting effort towards Gtk# 3 could be hard to pull off
with only two, kinda-slightly dedicated developers who are both new to
the code base. Anyone else who would like to step up to help?
