VM in the packages tree was never maintained by Kyle, the details in the
makefile to the contrary. All the commits have been from Steve Baur, Steve
Young, or myself. And we haven’t yet heard anything back from Robert
Widhopf-Fenk on whether he wants to maintain it in the XEmacs package tree,
so it’s not realistic to say that he’s the maintainer right now.
