I noticed that there's an empty newlisp organization on Github: https://github.com/newlisp
Anyone know whose this is?
It seems like a good idea to get the source up and running on Github, and maybe now is a good time for someone in the community to step up as a maintainer and do that.
Anyone hear from Lutz?
I hope someone continues the development of newlisp.
To attract new users I think it would be useful to be able to download compiled versions of the latest 10.7.6 release for the major operating systems.

p.s. sorry for the bad english
I heard back from him, he seems to be feeling unwell and is not able to work on newLISP.
There seems to be a repo at https://github.com/kosh04/newlisp
Yeah we need someone to act as an active maintainer who can continue the newLISP spirit / way of doing things.
I have fixed some bugs of newLISP here: https://git.envs.net/iacore/newlisp
I also added `(write-expr x)`. May you find this useful.

Have you considered putting out some release notes? Feel free to take inspiration from how Lutz does it (http://www.newlisp.org/downloads/newLISP-10.7.5-Release.html) or create your own method (e.g. a simple `HISTORY.md` file is often useful).
I added to doc/CHANGES and to the release page (https://git.envs.net/iacore/newlisp/releases).
When I asked Lutz this question he got back to me with a link to the same repo
@iacore posted: https://github.com/kosh04/newlisp
So I guess maybe that's where people should look to send PRs? But I see nobody seems to be maintaining it, and it seems to be setup more as a mirror.

That's crazy that Github keeps accounts that haven't had a single activity in the last 15 years, and deleting them would cause no harm.
