Hi David,
I’m Shahrukh from [OSS Revival](https://github.com/Project-OSS-Revival).
We specialize in revitalizing and maintaining open-source projects to
ensure long-term stability.
As a team, we have a combined 15 years of experience in C/C++ and
Python, and all of our developers are programming polyglots with
experience in maintaining both open-source and commercial projects.
I’m interested in the development and maintenance of Cryfs, and I would
love to help ensure it remains aligned with the project’s original vision.
Regards,
Shahrukh
