I'm considering it, but I'm currently a 5th year PhD student who really shouldn't be taking on new projects. I think it would be a wonderful opportunity to learn more about package development, but I'm not sure that I'd really have more time than you do to work on this. |

I'm interested in developing but frankly have no formal experience. Ready to learn. |

we (ropensci) are happy to help whoever decides to take this on - The piont is: you are not alone! @EDiLD I don't know of anyone one right now. Ideally it would be someone that knows the subject area and will use it themselves - and we can help with technical bits if needed. We can do a call out in Slack as well. |

Hi there! Me and my colleagues would be interested in potentially being the maintainer for this package. We are part of a metabolomics lab and regularly use chemical information. We have experts in chemistry and in R package development. Can we discuss in more detail via e-mail? I can send some more information to your available e-mail addresses. Thank you! |

Hi there, I do not have the time to commit to being a maintainer but I am interested in contributing. I'd would be happy to discuss with whoever ends up being the maintainer to see where I can best help.

I think the first priority issue is #149, switching to the new chemspider API. Currently all the chemspider related functions are broken. :-(. So if you have some experience with APIs or are willing to learn, I think that would be the place to start probably! |

Hi @Aariq - Thanks for following up. I was also affected by the chemspider API switch, so I'll see if I can make any progress there. |

Thank you @allaway for your contribution! |
I am not using webchem actively and I can't bring up the time that webchem deserves anymore.
I am looking for a maintainer & developer to take over.
@sckott, do you know of anybody from the ropensci community?
Anyone of the contributor interested @jranke, @Aariq, @Dahaniel
If I can't find someone till end of year, webchem will be abandonware without maintenance .
I'd really like to see webchem in good and motivated hands...
