Hmmm I need advice...

So with device-driver I made a bet on KDL and Miette. But now the author has stepped away from open source.

So what should I do now?
- Just wait it out and see what happens
- Fork and publish versions I maintain
- Migrate to something new
- Some other option?

Learning in the open I guess: https://github.com/diondokter/ddlang-test

https://github.com/diondokter/device-driver/issues/186

No decision yet. But making device-driver be its own dedicated language is appealing to me...
