Library maintenance #63

Open SamMousa opened 2 years ago

SamMousa commented 2 years ago

I am sorry to read about the passing of the maintainer of this library.

I just recently learned about this library and think it's definitely keeping alive in one form or another. mathiasverraes (intentionally not yet pinging you) you mentioned there is no maintainer, what kind of maintenance are you looking for exactly? Are you able / willing to review PRs, or just able to hand over appropriate permissions to a new maintainer or new maintainer(s)?

From what I can see the library is well tested and merging in at least some of the PRs should be pretty safe. While I don't have a lot of time to maintain the library I am interesting in helping out, the first things I would do:

These steps should make it relatively painless to accept small iterative improvements.

If people want to (help) in maintaining this library please respond here, if mathias doesn't respond in a few days I'll consider pinging him and hopefully he can guide us forward a bit.

I'm interested in helping keep this project going too. I often opt to use this in projects over using Regex. Whatever I can do to help, I'd love to make sure we preserve this as a maintained project for others to benefit too.
