Happy to accept the change of reality but do find Dendron too useful to abandon immediately and see any transition as painful. If @Dendron team (or @kevins8) intend to maintain the current state of Dendron in a functional condition and are interested in using their own creation, I am wondering if it might be possible to come up with an alternative development mode. A fund based on donations or grants? Interns to build features? Features as an outcome of educational/research projects? A stronger focus on community contributions? One could try to setup those things but the core team might need to review and integrate the resulting code. An alternative option is to find another willing maintainer. I am not a professional programmer nor do I have experience with public open source projects. Is this beyond possible?
