Consider maintaining pyuv #500

Closed llchan closed 3 years ago

llchan commented 3 years ago

I ran into https://github.com/saghul/pyuv/issues/271 when compiling pyuv for CPython 3.10. It should be a simple fix, but it seems like the project is effectively unmaintained and looking for new maintainers. Since pynvim is the only package I use that (optionally) depends on pyuv, I thought I would make a note here to see if we are interested in getting maintainer status over there to at least keep it functional. Alternatively, we could drop pyuv altogether but based on the setup.py it seems that we would have to drop support for older Pythons on windows.

I'm not familiar enough with either code base to volunteer myself as a proper maintainer, though in a pinch I could PR + merge the necessary fixes to get it working.

I take this back after looking at the code. Since the PY3 code path doesnt even consider pyuv we should just EOL that dependency at some point.
