I haven't received any response. The version of the port has been out of date for about half a year now, and still it hasn't been updated by the maintainer. There are also a few patches I've sent to the author that fix some display bugs. I also use this editor daily, so I have a vested interest in keeping it current.. Thus I wouldn't mind maintaining it :-) My question is, should I try harder to contact the maintainer, or should I stop fooling around and submit a PR to change the maintainer? OR should I roll the maintainer change, update, and fixes into one large PR for an easier commit task?
