Stepping down as virtualenv maintainer (& bus factor?)

Hi folks! Just flagging here that I'm gonna be stepping away from maintaining virtualenv going forward and I'll be removing myself from the corresponding GitHub team later today. There's a bunch of reasons for this, but the dominant ones are that (1) I don't want to be maintaining any Python 2 compatible code in 2021, (2) I don't think I know enough about the re-written codebase to contribute on that front, and (3) I don't want to put in the energy necessary to deal with consistent pushback to _all_ non-code changes related to the project. None the less, I do want to flag that there's probably a conversation to be had about virtualenv's bus factor at some point (I think it's 1 at the moment) and shoutout to my fellow maintainers for collaborating with me so far! ^>^ Best, Pradyun PS: I'm sending this here, because... I couldn't find any other good place to do so publicly, while still reaching the _only_ relevant people. :)
