Will find the time to rewrite it.

What a bad user experience.

ericelliott commented 8 years ago

@julmot It's open source. Feel free to contribute a pull request. I haven't used this library myself in several years. I leave it here for other people to benefit from.

ericelliott commented 8 years ago

I've updated the project status:

A lot has changed since I wrote this library in 2010. It has been several years since I used the library myself. I leave it here because other people might find it useful. There are some open issues, and I have no intention of updating or maintaining this library myself. Pull requests are welcome.

If you'd like to become the new maintainer of this project, open an issue and we'll discuss it.

My team thought of cleaning it up for jQuery 3.0. It's still the best validation library for HTML5 out-there.

It's still the best validation library for HTML5 out-there.

I can't agree with that. What others have you tried? And what makes you think that?

zenopopovici commented 8 years ago

@julmot I don't think this is the place to discuss this. I was replying to @ericelliott. Feel free to contribute if you wish.

julkue commented 8 years ago

@zenopopovici I think this is the best place to discuss this. @ericelliott doesn't maintain this project since Feb 15, 2014 and searches for a new maintainer. I think it will be hard to find one if the arguments for this plugin aren't transparent. Saying It's still the best validation library for HTML5 out-there. without adding arguments is kinda implausible.

@julmot I'm not getting dragged into this. It's a waste of everybody's time :)

:laughing: If it's a waste of time saying what makes this plugin uniquely, it's a waste of time finding a maintainer and making the plugin available. :beers:

ericelliott commented 8 years ago

@julmot Are there better jQuery validation plugins out there? Feel free to post links for people who are looking for maintained alternatives.

I guess better is in the eye of the beholder.
