time for a new owner

[Stephen Crosby]

A lot has changed since my first PR in 2014. At the time, I worked at RightScale where we needed a self-hosted error catcher, and I eagerly advocated for Errbit's adoption. I had grand ideas, like pluggable issue trackers and notifiers, autogenerated docs for all published versions and source map unpacking for client side errors. We managed to make some of that happen, but there is so much more to be done and due to some changes in my own priorities, I can no longer keep up, even with basic maintenance.

The Errbit community deserves a maintainer who has a vision for Errbit's future, can keep up with PRs and hopefully someone who uses Errbit today.

This project is still active, and I have no plans to change that. But I can no longer be an active maintainer. This has been true for several years now so this isn't substantial real change, but as the current maintainer, I feel I owe this message to the Errbit community and take the opportunity to initiate a request for a new maintainer. If you are a current contributor and would like to take on the maintainer role, let me know and we can talk it over. Even if you don't want to be the maintainer, the project needs more active collaborators who can review and approve pull requests. If you are a contributor and you'd like the 'commit bit' please let me know.

Errbit has been a part of my life for a decade and it has been wonderful to be part of this thing. Thank you to all 264 Errbit contributors. Thanks to Cyril Mougul (@shingara) for allowing me the pleasure of stewarding this project in 2015. Thanks also to the folks who came before, who I don't even know, and created this project in 2010.
