The official maintainer is Angus Leeming, who seems to have less time
recently to finish up what he has done (mainly to convertion to
autoconf, but also many fixes). I do have cvs access too, but my
knowledge of the internals of xforms (like this message passing stuff)
is a bit mysterious to me.

The goal before savannah got compromised was to cleanup what we have
now and release it as 1.1. The we can have a look at new features to
add. The intention is not to turn xforms into something than can rival
with kde or gtk, but rather to maintain it in a usable form and fix
bugs. Of course, to Angus and myself, usable means 'usable for LyX',
since we are both LyX maintainers.

There seem to be several people using xforms with GL, for example, and
I know nothing about that.

Anybody who is willing to give a hand is welcome, as far as I am
concerned.
