Repository should have a deprecation notice on top of the readme #168

Closed MTRNord closed 1 month ago

MTRNord commented 2 months ago

The repo is clearly inactive. Additionally, it pins nio to a version range from end of 2022. Now libolm is also deprecated. Meaning this a) runs on libolm and b) likely on an old version of libolm.

This is potentially a security concern. Instead, it should be officially stated that people should a) migrate away from pantalaimon and b) not make new implementations on top of this :)

Do we have any known replacements?

Do we have any known replacements?

from my understanding the replacement one should use is a native in-app implementation.

TheArcaneBrony commented 2 months ago

So, I have no replacement for pantalaimon as I don't have an in-app implementaiton.

Hank Greenburg has forked this repository and is maintaining it. They have asked if they could take over maintainership in this repo instead of maintaining a fork.

If people are fine with this, I would say that this would be a way forward.

Where is that fork?

Alright, since nobody complained I added @chookity-pokk as a maintainer. I think we can close this now.
