If the overall Org community is sharing your view, and if someone if
willing to step up as a maintainer, I am glad to step down as the Org
maintainer.

I meant it.  The word sounds harsh and I should have taken care of
making it clear I'm not _accusing_ you or whatsoever.  The fact that
my task is so big forces me to rely on people's patience, and I fully
recognize this can create frustration of some sort -- small examples:
Michael Brand has been mentioning a possible bug with priorities and
I have not had the time to look closely into it; I've not yet replied 
to the thread about the possible APPT/EVENT feature raised by Jason
a while ago; etc.

I understand people can feel frustrated about things I don't have time
to do, and I'm (silently) thankful to them that they don't get more mad
at me.

Sorry, this was not clear to me, because Lennart was the original author
of org-parse.el.  But I believe you and I'm glad this is the case!

I hope we can move forward to improve Org again together.

Best,
