Add @ralph.ronnquist to @unsystemd

On 25 August, 2014, @judecn started the public development ofvdev, based on the system he'd been using for himself for years: a static device manager. It came to replaceudevthat was being absorbed bysystemd. Jude's program were to become a flagship product of the Debian diaspora that later formed Devuan. Until 9 months ago, Jude contributed tovdev, but life caught up on him and he had to stop this endeavor. On August 8, he announced he would stop developingvdev . Discussions aboutvdevcontinued on the DNG mailing list, until 2 months ago, @ralph.ronnquist started working on the development ofvdevto address #1 (closed) and made a lot more improvements since. But he's not yet part of the @unsystemd team.

Hereby I'm asking:

  • @judecn if he wants to give up official maintenance ofvdevto pass it on to @ralph.ronnquist
  • @ralph.ronnquist whether he wants to take over official maintenance ofvdev
  • the @unsystemd team whether they want to accept Ralph among them

    Yes, I'd be prepared to take on official maintenance of vdev. I may need some guidance (more than once) as to the particulars of that commitment, but I believe I have the ability and time to do this a fair while into the future.

    Please note that I've created a merge request to bring in my fork changes to the master branch here, but I haven't accepted it yet, in case there are reasons to not merge. As a tentative plan, I'll leave it as is some few weeks or so, then merge and do the hands-on for new package version numbers to mark the occasion.
