As the stats show, there is some quite regular commit activity, but - respectfully - that doesn't translate into very active maintainership.
Case in point: there have been continued calls for tagging a release for three quarters of a year. Similarly, the previous release (much less arriving at a conclusion with the hook ordering issue) took a very long time (e.g. there was a failed quorum for a release, because not enough maintainers voted, already then leading to a round of maintainer reshuffling).
I don't have a solution (OSS maintainership is a hard & thankless task), but just wanted to point out that - at least in this repo - the commit activity is not the full side of the story.
Would some of the "recently"-added runc-maintainers be willing to wade into the runtime-spec waters? @AkihiroSuda @kolyshkin @thaJeztah
Yup, happy to help as well. Not sure if I'm able to always attend the OCI calls, but happy to help otherwise

Ping @kolyshkin; yes/no/maybe? 🙃
I am the author of youki. I'm also interested in the OCI specification. I also implement and feel well enough that it is not maintained. If there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.
Are there any plans to increase? https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/pull/1192#issuecomment-1504699640
👋 Hi @caniszczyk @h-vetinari . I am interested in this. I would like to do a review from youki and even runwasi point of view. If there is still room, please let me know. https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aopencontainers%2Fruntime-spec+type%3Aissue+involves%3Autam0k&type=pullrequests
