I'm excited to see such interest around porting this to arm64 Mac devices.

I'm curious about some items:

1.  Does the effort have a (defacto?) project manager to keep track of the
moving pieces?
2.  Is there a way to articulate the sense of urgency in getting this
accomplished and the related constraints?
3.  Who's interested in ensuring that there is a contingency plan and
pipeline process for bringing in, on-boarding and mentoring new
contributors?
