Ahemm, there has certainly never been other maintainers of zvt.
Gnome-terminal is another beast though, I once claimed to be a
maintainer and Miguel just told me I wasn't, so I don't really care to
touch it anymore.  One time i went on holiday and someone took it on
themselves to fix some minor zvt problems; but they introduced a bunch
of new ones.  That was about it.

The reason nothing is happening on it is that i'm simply happy with its
current state, I know you beg to differ, but that is your opinion.
There are a couple of minor niggling bugs left, but they certainly have
zero impact on my life, and I am an extremely heavy terminal user.

I have started planning work on a libzvt 2 with a sun guy, but things
haven't really taken off yet for various reasons.
