Is oboe.js dead? #238

Open cos opened 3 years ago

cos commented 3 years ago

The last release is precisely three years ago and there have not been any code contributions in a year and a half.

Should the project be considered dead/unmaintained? Do you have any recommendation for alternatives?

Thanks!

I wouldn't like to think so but the evidence as you have put it would suggest otherwise. I don't have permissions to do releases etc. With other contributors having less time it became impractical.

Would be great to pick it up again but I think some of the issues and advances in streaming and things like that mean a full new version that is built in a different way. We'd discussed having more specific implementations for node and the browser etc.

I just discovered this cool tool. But it seems inactive for quite a while. Is there an alternative library or is there any roadmap / plan / issue list for us to set up a full new version if I'd love to contribute.

I think it is a rather unique library in the JS space. I couldn't find anything like it. The current version is pretty robust and stable although I found a bug today. I'll report it and see if it gets any traction.

Here are two forks of the SAX parser used in Oboe that look like somebody maintains them. https://github.com/dscape/clarinet and https://github.com/KeeeX/sax-js
