As a huge fan of asio, and a frequent user, I am also concerned about this.

What would be the process of becoming a maintainer?

Just say here you would like to maintain the asio library and introduce yourself and your background. Hopefully someone from the Boost Steering Committee, like Michael Caisse, will respond, and you will be chosen to maintain asio. Boost very much needs talented C++ programmers to maintain libraries, and who have an interest and working knowledge of particular Boost libraries.

There are issues which are years old which have been lingering in the Boost.Asio repository, and there are also old issues in the stand-alone Asio repository. It seems like these are being ignored, is there any strategy for addressing this?

Examples:

This one is going on a year: https://github.com/boostorg/asio/issues/77

Two years: https://github.com/chriskohlhoff/asio/issues/124

Thanks
