I'm only occasionally active on Discord (especially at this time of year). We'd certainly be happy to have you share your work, thanks! Tom also has a functional port but I'm sure there there's work in your port that Tom hasn't gotten to, and it would be great to combine the efforts. > Our two conditions on the code donation are: > - Review comments should be addressed not by us.

Sure. You can share the port with an understanding that you're not able to iterate on feedback. I imagine the most straightforward path will be for Tom to take parts of your existing work as issues are encountered. On that note, if you do have other work in a similar situation (completed desktop work that's not upstream due to lack of developer time) we can see about spending time on review and integration. > - Our copyrights in the source should be preserved.
