I think it's pretty obvious from the commit history that the project is currently dead. The last commit is from 2019 and the one before that is from 2017, and there's effectively no activity.

Apparently the code is still working but at some point it won't work any longer or it won't be secure any longer.

I'm personally not willing to contribute further because I have different priorities. @glensc What about you?

Here are some (not necessarily disjoint) options I can think of:

  • Make @glensc the owner and I'll leave the project.
  • Look for a new maintainer, maybe here and on the mailing list.
  • Try to figure out if anyone is still using this, again maybe on the mailing list.
  • Archive the project.
  • Turn this into maintenance mode, where PRs are accepted and reviewed but nothing else.
  • Do nothing.

I plan to do this at the end of the week

* Look for a new maintainer, maybe here and on the mailing list.
* Try to figure out if anyone is still using this, again maybe on the mailing list.

The responses are not overwhelming, so I'll probably archive the repo here on GitHub. Unarchiving or forking will still be possible, of course.

I've been using this plugin for many years and I would really miss it.

Would you be willing to take over the project?

Archive the project.

This is what I'll do. Note that the repo can still be forked. I can even unarchive and transfer the repo to another account if someone is willing to take it. If you're interested, please contact me via email (which you can find find in the commit history).
