Upstream `directories` has been archived and possibly unmaintained again #34

Closed Aloso closed 3 years ago

Aloso commented 4 years ago

It looks to me like the directories crate is no longer unmaintained; there are new commits on March 4, June 21 and July 4, including a new major version release. I guess the README should be updated to reflect this.

Ironically, that makes for more recent maintenance than this crate now has. Is this effort still useful?

Dylan-DPC-zz commented 4 years ago

Yes. We have already committed to maintaining this and we can't go back on this. We will most likely keep things on par with the original crate, so most changes that are made there will reflect here unless we decide to diverge (we don't see a good reason to do that at the moment)

Wow, don't know what the problem is. image

tesuji commented 3 years ago

Hm, Simon changed his thoughts and unarchived crates: image

Let's close this issue as such. Still I don't know what can we do in these cases.
