I hoping Santa will bring me an n810 for xmas, and if she does I'll definitely want Nethack on it.
The bad news is I know nothing about maemo development.
The good news is that I know the nethack sources backwards (I did the Psion 5 port of nethack), and it only took a few changes to the existing maemo port to get it to compile in scratchbox.
So if Josep Torra really isn't going to continue maintaining the maemo nethack I expect I'll want to pick it up.

By the way, would you be putting some of your own touches to the port if you did end up taking that on as a project?
Just asking.

Then, yes, I have a few things I'd like to see: I think the screen real-estate could be better used so I'd like to play around a bit with the general layout. Also the menus could probably be tidied up.
I'm not one for using pretty graphic tiles: the ascii tileset is IMHO much clearer, but on the Psion I ended up with a character set that had tile-like representations for a few dungeon features (like boulders that were big and round) so I want to see if I can find a similar compromise tileset and include it.
The other big thing would to incorporate hearse support somewhere. Possibly automated whenever you start/end or save your game. (Configurable of course in case there are people who prefer not to use hearse).

It'd be a shame if such a good project died
