Hi Alain, Great to see there is some interest in the Electronics Lab Spin! Can you reach out to Chitlesh and see if he is willing to give up his spot as the maintainer of the group so that the spin can get the maintenance it needs? If I don't hear from him in a week, I'll just continue through the unresponsive maintainer process to get access. I would like to first start by removing some packages that just don't work anymore, and add a few that could greatly benefit this spin. I would welcome all of your help to get this done as I am a software engineer by day, hardware hacker by night, so input from someone who works with hardware on a daily basis would be invaluable.
