Is this project abandoned? #452

Open SethTisue opened 7 years ago

SethTisue commented 7 years ago

Are new maintainers sought?

Regardless of what the situation is, it would be good if the README were frank about it.

lrytz commented 7 years ago

In case this is alive:

Since it's published under org.scala-lang.modules, it would make sense to use the sbt-scala-modules sbt plugin and the mechanism for tag-driven releases, like for example in https://github.com/scala/scala-parallel-collections/tree/master/admin. If someone is interested, I can help.

SethTisue commented 7 years ago

Since it's published under org.scala-lang.modules

(We should change that, actually...)

dwijnand commented 7 years ago

To?

SethTisue commented 7 years ago

ch.epfl.scala perhaps

heathermiller commented 7 years ago

Let's not change package names unnecessarily.

SethTisue commented 7 years ago

Let's not change package names unnecessarily

at the moment we're only talking about changing the organization under which the module is published, not package names in the code

heathermiller commented 7 years ago

Sorry, writing from my phone while on honeymoon. Let's not change organization names/break build files. Same logic applies

SethTisue commented 7 years ago

nothing will change while you're off on your trip, I promise :-)

kamilkloch commented 7 years ago

Any news? :)

rrwright commented 7 years ago

Any update? There are so many open issues with no new replies, and long-standing goals for what is now at some level remedial support (e.g.: https://github.com/scala/pickling/pull/451), that I worry this project is in fact abandoned. —but I sure hope not! Any news? Thanks!

jsuereth commented 7 years ago

@rrwright I can help you get your code submitted into the project, but I just don't have time to do the 2.11->2.12 transition. My fear is that the loss of whitebox macros means this project needs to pull a phoenix and be brought back as a different beast entirely.

rrwright commented 7 years ago

Thanks @jsuereth . That sounds pretty conclusive on the demise of this project. :-/

SethTisue commented 6 years ago

@heathermiller any objection to simply using GitHub's "archive" feature on this repo...?

SethTisue commented 5 years ago

I am archiving the repo now.
