There are a large number of untriaged pull requests and issues currently open on the issue tracker for haskell-src-exts. The tool is widely used by tool writers but the last commit to the project is now over 6 months ago.
I was about to post this exact message after searching around for a good hour.
1. Does anyone know if Niklas or Peter plan to return to the project?
I didn't contact them directly. I'm not so sure if Nicklas is active at all.
2. Is there anyone else who is interested in updating the HSE parser?
Yes, I've got at least one fix I'd like to make myself and I'd be happy to do some triaging and releasing too. Most of the PRs look pretty good.
Roman Cheplyaka is a maintainer on hackage, hopefully he sees and knows something aobut this.
I'll email some people in the haskell suite group directly if this thread doesn't go anywhere.
I no longer maintain haskell-src-exts[1]. That said, I am happy to give maintainer rights on github and hackage to a new volunteer(s) unless Niklas or Peter (cc'd) objects. Just let me know your github and hackage usernames.
I also have commit rights on github, and although I don't have enough free time to be official maintainer, I could merge the occasional pull request when I have some free time. I have not done so since I'm not the maintainer and I was added to the haskell-suite project for other packages, but if people would like me to be slightly more involved in haskell-src-exts, I could do that.
