New Maintainer Needed #34

Open Michael-F-Bryan opened 4 years ago

Michael-F-Bryan commented 4 years ago

I haven't needed to generate EPUBs for ages, so haven't had a real incentive to continue developing it or resolve open issues/PRs. If you use this tool or would like to see it improved, let me know and we can sort something out.

Some points for future work:

[x] Create a good default template which emits full HTML documents (will probably fix the myriad of "book is corrupted" issues - see #31, #29, #23, #20, #28, and the solution in https://github.com/Michael-F-Bryan/mdbook-epub/issues/28#issuecomment-645880024)
[x] Create a good default stylesheet
[x] Allow people to link to the web (issue: #22, proposed solution: #25)
[x] Make sure this tool can be used to consistently render The Rust Programming Language
[ ] Publish pre-compiled binaries for Windows/Linux/Mac using GitHub Releases
[x] Make sure building with the --standalone flag will go through the normal mdbook rendering process (#30)

Hi Michael. I would be interested in taking over the maintenance

@Michael-F-Bryan Hi Michael. I also can be one of maintainers along with @glottologist and probably other people. Let's move project further all together.

Michael-F-Bryan commented 4 years ago

@blandger and @glottologist sure thing that'd be awesome.

Do you have anything in mind for this project, or use cases you'd like to see implemented? I have a bit of free time coming up so could probably help mentor.

blandger commented 4 years ago

There are things goes into my mind first.

review PRs for upgrading dependencies, check changes and see if they are feasible and suitable
The main problem I can see is that project/code doesn't do it main functional ability to create epub from current rust-book MD sources. So it would be good to repair the main functionality first (Make sure this tool can be used to consistently render The Rust Programming Language). As I can see processing resources to be included doesn't work properly. Now the rust book has a different links like: {{#include ../listings/ch02-guessing-game-tutorial/no-listing-01-cargo-new/output.txt}}

Later we can start work on next bugs and later on features.

The seems like a sound plan. I definitely think getting the core functionality working should be the main first focus.

Michael-F-Bryan commented 4 years ago

That sounds like a good plan. I've added the two of you as collaborators so you should be able to make changes as you see fit.

Do you still need a maintainer? I would like to offer my candidacy.
