Hi there,
I'm very sad to inform you that Dijji, my dad, died at the end of May 2021. He loved working on his open source projects, so I very much hope that you have found some value in them.
If you have the spare money, and feel you would like to pay your respects in some way, then please donate to the MS Society (or the equivalent in your home country) https://www.mssociety.org.uk/
If you feel that you would like to take ownership of one of his repos please let me know. I'm a computer programmer too (he taught me when I was young), but C# and Windows aren't really something I know much about.
All the best, Emily
Dear seeemilyplay,
I had interacted with Dijjiin around Nov. 2020 and worked with him briefly to resolve a minor bug. Just today, I was revisiting this repository in the attempt to contact Dijji on a separate matter in collaboration when I read about the loss of your Dad. Please accept my sincerest and late condolences. Dijji's work is one of the few, if not the only one, that does much more and has so much potentials, and that was what I wanted to discuss with Dijji about due to recent needs on my end for deep diving into further development dealing with Outlook's PST format.
Anyway, if I can be of any assistance with this repository, please let me know, although I would find it difficult to fill Dijji's shoes in taking ownership of this repository.

I'm so surprised to hear about the sudden passing of your father.
Dijji helped me to read an old XST file by providing XstReader, which is only one OSS to read it.
I'm not so familiar with C# that I cannot play the role of the ownership of XstReader, now.
But, I'm still interested in it, and, I may contribute to the project in the future.
So, please don't close the project and leave options to someone, including me, to take over.
My deepest condolences.

I am shocked by the sad news. I'm so sorry for your loss.
I am a back-end computer programmer in c#. I think this project is very useful and can grow. I have been involved in the development of some branches. If no one else wants to take ownership, I can manage this repo, acknowledging Dijji's great work, of course.
My deepest condolences.

Thank you for your kind words @halueda. @Dijji would've been so pleased to hear that he helped you. I definitely wouldn't close the project. I actually don't even have rights to do it anyway - I need to apply to Github for that.

Thank you @iluvadev. I wasn't expecting a volunteer so quickly ! I see you've got a fork going already, do you think it might be enough to redirect people to the fork?
I'll send an email to Github support to see what they can do.

Yes, I think redirecting people to the fork would be a good and easy solution.
