This is my thing with it. I'd rather have the full focus on Zyn instead
of having 2 separate versions.
Some stuff will end up in Yoshimi that Zyn will not have and vice-versa.

With time the code will differ so much that changes can't be applied to
one another.

When Zyn did not have a maintainer Yoshimi seemed like the right thing,
but this is no longer the case.
