4 months ago I'm probably the worst candidate possible, since I'm very new in the world of CNC and have no clue how CAM software works. So any other would have my vote.
However, if there really are no other candidates, I could take up the task to at least take a look at the pull requests when they come in and merge them when they make sense. Because it would be a waste to let this beautiful project die due to being unmaintained. I'm pretty proficient in Git and Python.
EDIT: maybe I should also answer this:
announcing your availability
I'm currently pretty busy with other projects and things in my life, so I won't be able to do much development myself. However, I check up on Github almost daily and could review PR's or fix small bugs when they get reported.
You can optionally say a bit about yourself in your message.
- Living in Belgium (Europe)
- New at CNC specifically, but have been tinkering with electronics for the past 20 years (including 3D printers, which basically are CNC machines that perform the reverse operation :) )
- Working in the field of Embedded Software, mainly programming C for a living, but I use Python for small tooling and personal projects where development speed is more important than absolute quality.

I don't have the bandwidth to maintain this project, and I haven't for a long time.
I'm happy to give maintainership to anyone who wants it, subject to community approval.
If you want to volunteer to be a PyCAM maintainer, post a reply in this issue announcing your availability. You can optionally say a bit about yourself in your message.
To vote for a new maintainer, add a :+1: emoji to their volunteering message. To vote against a new maintainer, add a :-1: to their message. In handful of days or so I'll give commit privilege to anyone with a few more ups than downs.
