Upcoming changes to the management of The Great Suspender #1175

Hi everyone. I'd like to announce some changes to the administration of The Great Suspender project.

It's been almost 8 years since the first release of The Great Suspender to the Chrome Web Store. I've seen the extension turn from a hobby project to an indispensable chrome add-on, all due to an enthusiastic community of users that promoted the extension on my behalf.

The contribution of both code, and feedback from everyone here on GitHub has been critical to the success of the project. You have helped me detect and resolve bugs, given me ideas for UX improvements and new features, and provided technical assistance when I have found myself struggling with some code. I honestly couldn't have got to this point without you.

However, as the user base for The Great Suspender has continued to grow, so have the commitments in my private life. And I've found I'm increasingly incapable of meeting the demands that this project requires. I've therefore decided to take a step back, and let others lead the development.

I have found a new dedicated owner for The Great Suspender who has the capacity to see the extension actively maintained into the future. The new GitHub administrator for this project will be @greatsuspender. They have also purchased the rights to publish the extension to the Chrome webstore and will be managing the public release process going forwards. Big thanks for taking on this project and continuing its development!

Thanks again for all of your support here on GitHub. You're the best!
