While I'm sure this is the sort of project that could benefit from ongoing improvements, it is also not going to decay away into utter uselessness if nobody commits to it in a week or two.
I understand the need for projects to be maintained, but I think some people have been badly burned by the Javascript world, or possibly some other language environments, and don't realize that those environments aren't the norm, but one of the extrema. Go is quite possibly on the other extrema. It does not generally decay. Again, I'm not saying that means it's totes cool to pick up a security-based project with a last commit from seven years ago and just assume it's still cutting edge, but this sort of Go code doesn't require a dozen commits a month just to tread water.
