Yeah, one thing that impressed me was the credentials of the guys who helped found the project. And I really like the philosophy of Alexis Sukrieh but who has apparently stepped away from the project. Overall, I'm getting the impression that the project is mature and stable but could use some more promotion and new blood. My guess is, Sawyer X–who helped carry for the project for the past few years–is wrapped up on Perl 5 core development as a pumpkin. I don't have a lot of involvement in open source (made some very minor contributions to Drupal 10 years back) but I've always been fascinated in getting involved if the right project came along. This one seems to be right up my alley. I'm looking for ways to do what I can to help.

It's tough to help breathe life into a project without support, though. If existing core developers are too busy to foster the next wave of Dancer2 developers, what can be done?
