Project seeking new maintainers

[dnrce]

@jrgifford and I haven't been taking care of YamlDb in a while, so this project is officially seeking a new maintainer or maintainers to steward it into the future.

Do you use YamlDb and have an interest in taking over? Let us know here!

I'm considering taking over as a maintainer, but I will need access to someone who can serve as a "lifeline". As I mentioned in my post back in June, I have a vague understanding that there is a whole knowledge base required to maintain a gem properly, and I know I don't have it! Is there anyone available who can serve as that mentor?

I'm interested - I'm using it in several of my personal projects, and although I've never really maintained a gem like this before I have a rough idea of what is required. Maybe @tovodeverett and I could pair up and do it together?

As you can see by how long it took me to respond to the post from @starswan , I don't have a lot of spare time in my life right now, so I can't really commit to even helping. Also, I'd say I have less than a rough idea of what is required. I do have a number of monkey patches to yaml_db that I'd love to get into it, but for better or worse monkey patching has been the patch of least resistance for me.
