People, including the other co-maintainers, are welcome to pursue
this, but I personally have no free time or resources to do that.
I can only say that it would be harder for a casual contributor to do
a GSoC-style job for Emacs than for other projects, because Emacs has
a lot of specialized needs and requirements that take time to learn.
But maybe this is not an obstacle.
