Hello Yocto community,

some parts of Yocto software (MIC?) use the 'bmap-tools' project to speed up
image flashing.

https://github.com/intel/bmap-tools

I am the original author of the software, and I created it many years ago to
speed up Tizen image flashing, and it helped a lot back at the time. It was also
my first python project, so it was a lot of fun learning python while also
creating something useful.

But after that, I stopped working on it and it was mostly Yocto folks who
contributed changes here and there. I never had time and enough motivation to
maintain the project further, but other folks helped.

Simon McVitte was active maintainer, but he said he does not have time for it
now as well.

The project is in "github.com/intel" space, and Intel is going to archive the
git repository soon. This basically means the repository becomes read-only soon.

Would Yocto community have enthusiasts to fork it and maintain the fork?

Thanks,
Artem.
