Archivation #98

Open jdonszelmann opened 2 years ago

jdonszelmann commented 2 years ago

I propose to archive this repository.

I have been trying to rework this crate all day such that it works with modern rust compilers. I failed since multiple integral dependencies of this crate (namely maidsafe_utilities, socket-collection) are archived themselves (and do not compile anymore with recent versions of rust). I think further development to this library is not productive as further development will need to address dependencies of these archived and thus unmaintained repositories.

However, reusing parts of this crate to create a newer, more modern library accomplishing a similar task seems useful I can't find many alternatives in the rust ecosystem to this for peer to peer connections.

This is my opinion, if the developers think differently, feel free to dismiss this issue.

for example, #97 is unfixable at this moment and any version above 1.48 (we're at 1.55 as of writing this comment) fails as well.
