### We are looking for a new maintainer for the Windows builds of Geany
**You want to:** - continue using Geany (or start doing so) - maintain the Windows builds of Geany - support the Geany developers on creating releases - have fun with Geany's codebase, MSYS2 and Microsoft Windows and all the problems these create
**Your benefits:** - fame and glory - happy users of Geany on Windows
More seriously, while Geany is developed mostly on Linux and probably most of the user base is using Linux as well, there are also some Windows users. In the past, the Windows builds were maintained by me (eht16) but I cannot continue because I used a Windows 7 VM but Windows 7 is no longer supported by MSYS2 which the builds are based on. I will not upgrade to or use any newer version of the operating system for various reasons, so we are looking for someone who wants to take over.
Feel free to ask questions and comment here in this issue.
