The project appears abandoned by @Jolg42. New active development fork linked in body of issue. #539

Closed ILOVEPIE closed 1 year ago

ILOVEPIE commented 1 year ago

Please see #464 for the discussion leading up to this.

Seeing as it's been several months with no movement, I will be continuing development of opentype.js on my fork which is available here. If and when @Jolg42 returns I would be more than happy to shift development back to the main repository, but it looks like he's abandoned this project so it doesn't seem likely.

I will need some co-maintainers at least temporarily to help go through old PRs and apply ones that are worth applying, anyone who wishes to help with that process can reply to this message, or contact me via discord where i go by ILOVEPIE#9201.

Are you going to enable issues in your fork, or do you want to keep communication here in the original repo?

Thanks, It's fixed now.

@ILOVEPIE I just invited you to the OpenType.js org as a member 💚

I'm happy to invite people motivated to continue the project if needed. Sorry for not listening to the complaints here 🙈

Hi @Jolg42 I'd be interested in helping out as well. I don't have much time as mentioned, but let's see if I can at least squeeze in some code reviews here and there!

I also invited you @Connum

Maybe we should rename it to main one day.

I would suggest activating Require approvals and Require approval of the most recent reviewable push.

ILOVEPIE commented 1 year ago

Just did that myself.
