Chris does not have any vision of the project anymore. He does not have enough time even to publish releases [0]. And it was actually he who suggested Benno to fork GNU nano.

I did not see any evidence for this in the discussions on the mailing list. Could you give some references?

    If folks are not interested in following that process, the best thing
    might just be to move to github or another repository and abandon the
    guise that we are acting according to GNU guidelines. Benno, Mike S,
    Mike F, Mark M, especially interested in hearing your take.
