merge to upstream https://github.com/jcmcken/parallel-ssh #110

Has anyone tried to reach out to original maintainers about merging fixes to the pssh version back into the upstream that is currently maintained by @jcmcken ? I think (at least) the python 3 compatibility stuff is super useful, and the pypi version can be updated to support it!

I think the jcmcken fork is also just a fork. I don't see any official releases since 2012 on PyPI, or indications that the fork is alive either (since 2015).

However, @lilydjwg, have you tried to contact the original owners on PyPI to get the rights to pssh? If they don't respond, PyPI itself might be able to give a maintained fork rights. Homebrew has a broken pssh since the old version + patches is failing on 3.8.

I'm trying to contract the original maintainer now. This fork originally was only a place for me to keep my changes and I didn't expect it to gain much attention.

Yeah, that's always how that works.

Hey @lilydjwg and luck reaching out to Andrew McNabb or Brent N. Chun? If not, shall we reach out to PyPi about updating project ownership?

The macOS package manager homebrew is now somewhat maintained (people submitted fixes that patch it to support python 3.8) and it runs on my machine, but it can be cleaned up and updated to the latest version (2.3.4) that you recently released, which should include those.
