Re: Python vs C C++ ¡
Use python until you have a performance problem. If you ever have one figure out what the problem is (often it isn't what you would have guessed up front). Then solve that specific performance problem which will likely be an algorithm or data structure change. In the rare case that your problem really needs C then you can write just that portion in C and use it from your python code.
(This matches my personal experience. Python is my go to language with C C++ next in line).

1 - Take on WiringPi maintenance for the new OS and any future OS releases
2 - Convert the current sbitx code away from WiringPi.
The WiringPi library is for C and C++ code.? Another choice might be to convert to another language like Python, though that effort would be huge and would not have the efficiency of execution C provides.? This was the direction that AdaFruit took for some of its products.
Does anyone have information on Raspberry Pi's direction?? I have read that a lack of new developments or updates for the package prompted the move away from WiringPi.? I do not know enough about the other choices to make any recommendation.
