As well: I'm all for it! In the last few years, only minimal maintenance happened for the VAX backend. Neither Matt nor myself (not being a maintainer for VAX, but I care about this!) did do a lot. Would be great to have another port maintainer and I'm especially happy that you'd consider working on the VAX code in your sponsor project's time.
