[openbeos] MeV. Abandonware or Showcase BeOS/Haiku native midi sequencer?

Hi,
considered posting this to openbeos-midi but the list looks totally
deserted. Forgive me for posting here instead but I have this great
urge to say something important ;o)
I had MeV up and running in Haiku today. Considering this midi sequencer
has languished on sourceforge untouched for over 5 years, I have to say:
a) What a potentially fantastic piece of software this is and
b) I was absolutely GOBSMACKED! that MeV fired-up on Haiku without too
many issues.
This leads me to state the obvious really. What a waste!
Would anyone be willing to help me resurrect this project? I'm not a
coder but have had a fair amount of experience with the interface kit.
Fact is, the MeV interface is really quite advanced/mature so my
(limited) skill would be of little use here.
I would be prepared to help steer any future development/progress on
MeV, write documention and other such stuff if we could garner any devs
to help bring the project from 'also ran' status to 'showcase' midi
sequencer for Haiku (I helped Alpha test MeV back in 2001 for Christoper
Lenz and the MeV team).
Today, I was using the GM version of Fluid3 (sf2) softsynth which
weighs-in at a massive 142 Mb. The system was struggling but most
everything seems to be functional. I am delighted.
Any thoughts, takers?
