If it was taken over by a Russian company, what new features would they add to
it?

Hi:
I have been seeing some articles that The Guitar Tab folks in Russia
has purchased the Audacity resources other than the actual
open-source code base.
They did this last year with Muse Score as well.
Are they going to be employing or otherwise compensating the owners,
and or developers of Audacity resources?
Many folks have contributed to this software so, if this is true,
have a stake in how it is maintained or managed.
It could be deprecated unless another group starts to support a new
branch.
other maintenance or new features might even require payment.
It may also have implications for the developers of the accessibility
features since other software owned by overseas companies, some of
them at least, often don't respond well to requests for
accessibility features using their own countrys accessibility
regulations rather than those which are stricter here in the U.s..
At least that has been my observation over the years.
So, what is the real deal?
Will we be working with a Russian company going forward either in
primary or due to some owner, developer, connections with a Russian Company?
I am interested in this since I may do some accessibility development
of something like Audacity ProTools or other package downline.
