Are we to consider stainless broken and unmaintained? |
I mailed both maintainers directly months ago without an answer so yes, the project is broken and unmaintained. |
I think it's time for a proper fork. Are you up for maintaining that? |
Since you're discussing about forking, I'd like to mention a package I wrote quite a while ago which is very similar to / inspired by stainless but has some additional features like declaring functions / consts / statics outside It doesn't support the
I'm probably missing some things, so let me know if you run into any problems. |
Hey all, sorry for the communication delay, unfortunately I don't have time to maintain stainless any more. I would be amenable to adding more maintainers if others are interested in doing the work, so that people can continue to use the library if they find it helpful. |
@reem can you add me as a maintainer on here and on crates.io? My mail is svenstaro@gmail.com on both. I'm an Arch Linux developer and am a pretty active open source dude in case you need any credibility. You could also transfer the repo to my GitHub account so that I don't have to bug you in case I want to add some integrations to it. @utkarshkukreti that looks pretty dope. I'll check that out. |
Is this transfer of maintainership of If not, in the interests of being good open source citizens, would you accept PRs to mark this as a dead project and direct to speculate instead, so that future folks have an easier time figuring out which BDD project is still alive? |
Honestly, at this point, I'm no longer interested in maintaining stainless. I switched over to speculate.rs and I'm happy with that. |
Oh for good grief @svenstaro @reem. Then could some one please, for the love and compassion for all folks new to Rust and its ecosystem, amend the Genuine question: is it acceptable to the Rust community for newcomers to have to ask for this? By comparison, in my experience it's considered common courtesy in the Ruby ecosystem (among others) that when the most highly visible project in a given niche dies, they make BIG VISIBLE NOTICES referring newcomers to the most likely replacements. Would you accept a pull request to do this? |
Yes I would accept a pull request directing people to a suitable and
actively maintained replacement. Unfortunately I don’t really have any time
right now to do maintenance, so if nobody else wants to do it I think that
would be the best course of action.

Genuine question: is it acceptable to the Rust community for newcomers to
have to ask for this?
By comparison, in my experience it's considered common courtesy in the
Ruby ecosystem (among others) that when the most highly visible project in
a given niche dies, they make *BIG VISIBLE NOTICES* referring newcomers
to the most likely replacements.

@reem You can fill me in as maintainer (pascal.seitz@gmail.com), I maintain a fork anyway https://github.com/PSeitz/stainless. You can also transfer the repo, this would make things easier. |
I currently get this on git master and nightly of 2018-02-28:
