Is it really? People have been chugging along behind the scenes. Perhaps
Patrick might provide an update after he returns from vacation.

My take on this is that once we're ready to handle contributions, an
updated website can point to GitLab just as well as GitHub. Right now,
it would feel wrong to me to advertise how/where to contribute because
merge requests not being processed in a timely fashion tend to cause
frustration.

One of the issues that drives me nuts is the unwieldy, monolithic gob
that is amavisd as of today. Making, and testing, changes is a pain,
and I believe it would be a waste of effort to handle significant
contributions before amavisd is sliced in to manageable chunks.
