is McMilk back from vacation?

Yes, but other things are also important: my work and volunteer firefighting.

@mcmilk hope you enjoyed your trip!
If you don't mind, it seems like you’re really not into working on this project, if it feels like a burden why not just archive it or stop working on it altogether?

I've stopped using this fork as it is against common sense to use software with security vulnerabilities. I've reverted to plain 7-Zip, will consider other forks, such as NanaZip.

I still think this is an important project, and it used to be actively maintained. I believe this could be simply resolved by opening the project to trusted committers/contributors that would be willing to commit their patches and build process. Not exactly sure why this is not happening, but that would eliminate the risk of a single and overburdened commiter/owner. @mcmilk Would you please consider ?

I don't have seen any pull request for updating the 7-Zip.
Updating some compressing code is fairly easy, thats no problem.
But I am as a non Windows user have currently no real need for this project. On my work the older releases are fine currently.

Version 24.08 is now actual with some bugfix.

[FadeMind]

@stefano2734 actually the project 7-Zip-zstd was abandoned.

[mcmilk]

Not really - but I have other things with higher priority currently.
