New release? #678

Open jacebrowning opened 7 years ago

jacebrowning commented 7 years ago

The 9.3. release on PyPI is from Jul 16, 2014, but there have been dozens of commits since then, as recent as Jun 28, 2016. Can we get a new release?

👍 Yup agreed did a pip install linkchecker today on a new machine and it wouldn't work right.

Commenting out the check in lines 29 and 30 of lib/python2.7/site-packages/linkcheck/init.py fixed the issue. Not ideal really :)

it seems there is not onl a new release that needs to be done here, but also major triage on the issue queue. i have tried to do some of this related to #566, but unfortunately, i do not have access to actually closing issues.

i would be curious to here if @wummel or others would be interetested in making an organisation to maintain this project collaboratively. it seems there is a lot of people contributing here (issues and code, with 166 forks!), enough that the project would be better off with more maintainers.

@anarcat i think that would be a good idea. This project looks like its becoming a bit unmaintained, which is a shame because something like linkchecker still has a place and probably will for a long time to come.

Even a bug fix release merely including https://github.com/wummel/linkchecker/commit/c2ce810c3fb00b895a841a7be6b2e78c64e7b042 would be a big gain, given it would make installing from PyPI work again!

okay well, let's see where this can take us. i have opened an issue in #686 to see who is interested in starting a new organisation for this.
