Though I still consider myself active, the other maintainers are… not really. We require approval from a maintainer who didn’t author the PR to merge a PR, and thus 4 PRs have been collecting dust waiting for review for half a year now, including the quite critical #376 addressing more indent_namespace false positives.
While maintainers don’t necessarily need to commit code, they do need to learn how the code works so they may check code quality when reviewing PRs. Some Python experience would be preferred.
I have a simple fix: Rewrite it in Rust, then you get lot of exited developers. – Modern problems require modern solution.
(Mind you, this is just a joke reply.)
Someone has rewritten cpplint in cpp, and I find it quite exciting, although I haven’t gotten around to reviewing its code yet…
