New Tkx maintainer
(Update 2021-02-04: I have been added as a maintainer on PAUSE; Tkx now maintained at https://github.com/chrstphrchvz/tkx)
Hello @gisle,
I am interested in becoming a co-maintainer for Tkx. I have been familiarizing myself with Perl/Tk, Tcl/Tk, and related wrappers like Tcl::pTk. I have only used Tkx briefly, but it's helped with comparing results between wrappers. I have encountered concerns that Tkx is dormant and has had some issues for a while, such as test failures during installation. I would like to be able to publish maintenance releases of Tkx to address existing issues, and help users out with future ones. Hopefully this can reassure others that Tkx is not completely "dead" or broken, especially given its good compatibility with future Tcl/Tk versions, and availability of modern tutorials for it like TkDocs.com.
Could you please consider adding me as a co-maintainer on PAUSE and the GitHub repository?
Thanks,

If I am designated a maintainer, I will designate my fork (https://github.com/chrstphrchvz/tkx) as the official repository and bugtracker, unless I can be granted permissions to this repository or ownership of it can be transferred to me.
PAUSE admins have granted me maintainership: https://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.modules/2021/02/msg102280.html
