Hi Behdad, Thank you for giving me a great opportunity and the kindly email announcing the change of the maintainership. what I'm waiting for reviews isn't more than what you had experienced in the past but I believe my initiative would helps a lot of people who are also waiting for bug fixes and improvements. I hope and I'll do my best to not make any mistakes :) Once the transfer is done, I'll start to prepare the next release, hopefully in a few weeks. Thanks so much.
