https://github.com/fatfreecrm/fat_free_crm/graphs/contributors doesn't look super healthy, and everyone gets busy from time to time.

It'd be worth looking at folks that have submitted merged pull requests and adding basic contributor level access.

Alternatively, adding more automation (deppbot for example is a good start, perhaps there are other tools that can more regularly publish ffcrm as a gem with minimal effort)

https://github.com/reduced-fat-crm is a thing for now, throwing out contributor access to anyone who's authored a PR.
