You can fork it if you like. Feel free!

Meanwhile, last week I spent fixing some gaps in the XMM semantics (relational 
operators are now supported).

Before that, I went through every DIP1000 bugzilla issue, and submitted PRs for 
the problems.

Before that, I went through (again) the list of outstanding issues with ImportC 
and fixed the top problems.
