Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "gui":

gui is a terminal text editor written in C using ncursesw, with
keyboard and mouse support, classic menus and dialogs, multiple
documents, split windows, search and replacement, and configurable
colors. I am the upstream author and prospective Debian maintainer.
