> I think the truth is that we don't feel like we need a release. We've never had a security hole, our track record speaks for itself, and I wouldn't really want us to rush anything and blow that. There are some features that it would be really nice to have in a release (like 24-bit color support, and working around a recent MacOS clock bug), but I handed over the maintainership to somebody else about six years ago and that person is currently, I think, dealing with a bunch of stuff (look around the world the last year...). I'm not eager to step back in and bigfoot them -- especially when I'm no longer particularly familiar with the codebase (and recent commits) as I used to be.
I can appreciate that, but what do you say to e.g. the contributor that added true color support nearly 4 years ago?
cgull also hasn't authored or committed anything in mosh in more than two years, so his inactivity predates the pandemic by quite a bit.
Everyone loves your software, and that's the reason they want to see another release with the many improvements already in git, most for multiple years. I really don't think you're going to step on any toes by making a new release.
Pretty please?
