However, the penmount X driver lacks a maintainer, whose task would be to make sure the driver keeps working with new X versions (which essentially means testing it from time to time). Other X developers can most likely fix it if breakage is reported, but since none of them can test the driver they can't notice when changes in other components would break it. Would you consider taking this on? Thanks, Julien
