I love tornadofx but it's been in limbo for a while now. There have been numerous discussions on github and here overtime about the project needing new maintainers. Aleksander here perfectly states the problem: "I think that many people are eager to contribute to this repository, but the work to be done is undefined". Jacek here has created a gradle tornadofx2 which many of people have asked for (and IMO should replace the maven version). Edvin has repeatedly indicated he is open to letting others maintain. Would people here be willing to throw their hat in the ring and sit down and discuss the direction of the project, and potentially take on various degrees of responsibility with regards to the project? If we can get a handful of people we could perhaps take some first steps. Please reply to this thread if you would be interested!

I don't feel I really have the skills to participate in any major way, but I'm really interested in the outcome as I'm using it for my Master's Thesis.

I've been meaning to write up a list of things people can work on to get started. Will aim to do that today and I'll drop a link to it here 🙂
