[haskell-llvm] Looking to transition maintainership of the llvm package(s)

I'm Ralith on github. I expect to be frequently working with LLVM in Haskell at least until Idris becomes self-hosting, and as such I'll be very happy to help keep the FFI layer up to date.

Subject: Looking to transition maintainership of the llvm package(s)

Folks, 


I have no time or reason to work on the llvm packages these days, and keeping it up-to-date with upstream changes is quite a lot of unrewarding work. 


I'd thus like to hand over much or most of that maintainership of the packages. There's no reason there should be only one maintainer, so ideally as many people as are interested and capable should do it. 


In practice, this would amount to: 


    * Triaging and responding to bug reports 
    * Handling pull requests 
    * Keeping up-to-date with upstream LLVM changes 
    * Testing, tagging, and issuing new releases 

If you're interested, please follow up with your github username, and I'll add you as a collaborator to the llvm repo. That will allow you to co-maintain the project. 


Thanks.
