I have added a line that says more work is to be directed towards tooling and advocacy

This year, the state of Hyperledger Solang is still pretty good, as the project maintainers anticipate growth despite a decline in pull requests.

A positive point is that I did see quite a few new contributions (of new contributors) in the last year.

Reasons to be optimistic are new funding from Stellar, contribution of of Solang Playground from Web3 Foundation, and the contribution of of Solang-Aqd, a smart contract CLI tool.

There has been a diversification maintainers due to the the addition of Salaheldin Soliman, as now the maintainers are from three different organizations totalling Solana, Parity, and Stellar. However I cannot see @salaheldinsoliman in the maintainers file.

The main difficulty the maintainers report is adoption due to insufficient developer tooling, and they will try to address this by creating tutorials and user-friendly tools. They will also try to onboard more users to Solang.

Another notable thing Solang lacks is technical writing and review of tutorials and explanations.

I overall agree with the recommendation of the maintainers to have the project remain in incubation, and I would like to add that it can be good to elaborate on how they are going to achieve their goals for this year (onboarding new users).

There is another maintainer that is not in a maintainers file. https://github.com/hyperledger/solang-aqd has @tareknaser as a maintainer but there is no file.



## Next Year's Goals
The main goal is to on-board more users and production projects to Hyperledger Solang. More work will be put into Solang Playground and Solang-Aqd to make it easier for Solidity developers to start using Solang, as well as tutorials to encourage production projects to use Solang.

One of the suggestions from the TOC is to work on increasing maintainers as well as commit diversity.
