## Notify is abandoned

Sorry.

Notify has been years of my life and as much as it’s a tough decision, I’m also
greatly relieved. It’s been great, it’s been not so great; it’s now time. I got
some distance, took a hard look at it all, and realised I don’t want to do this
any more. For way longer than I should have let this go on for, Notify sparked
negative joy, and I’m Marie-Kondo-ing it out.

The logistics: several people have commit bit, and several people have publish
bit, and the project is also covered by the
[Rust Bus](https://users.rust-lang.org/t/bus-factor-1-for-crates/17046).

If you want to take over or get commit/publish bits and you’re a
trusted/respected community member, just ask. If you’re not a trusted/respected
community member, try forking first.

I will not merge PRs, I will not commit unless it’s an emergency, I will not
respond to issues or comments unless I really really feel like it, and the goal
is total disengagement.

So Long 🔭 And Thanks For All The Fish 🐬

## Todo

**Version 4 is not frozen!** I'm just not actively spending time on it.

I do accept pull requests for fixes _and features_, and would even consider
breaking changes with enough justification. Do contribute, please!

(Originally I thought that Version 5 would take less time to get out, but it
has now been clear for a while that the finish line is quite far away still.
I'm still at it, but expect nothing soon.)
