this region to get the things fixed to get this far. Ofcourse like rsync.net
you are free to sponsor these items if they are really important to you,
without that, do notice that people do this in their own free time, which
could either take some time before it's there, or might not be interesting
enough to work on currently (because of other things at work, private life
other code etc).
It's not a matter of a capable individual taking the lead, it's a matter
of having someone capable enough working on this for some time, which can
be achieved by sponsoring that capable person for example.
