I want to emphasize right at the outset that I don't believe project maintainers have any kind of obligation to the community to continue working on a project. I'm very grateful for htop and all the work that has been put into it thus far.
I was recently surprised to notice that there haven't been any new commits to the project in over a year, and issues and pull requests are piling up. One in particular I'd very much like to see merged, adding support for PSS: #843
If the maintainer no longer has time or interest in working on the project, would they support additional community involvement, or possibly even a community supported fork, in order to get issues quashed and pull requests dealt with? I don't have the skill to do that, personally, but as htop is one of the most widely used sysadmin tools, I'm sure people would step up.
If this is just a temporary slowdown in time to work on the project, I'd be happy to hear that too! Thanks again for htop!
