Hello, We should also take care of "memory", "foundation" and "basement". No action is taken for over a month to https://github.com/haskell-foundation/foundation/pull/549 I cannot switch my main GHC version to 9.0 at this moment. --Kazu
Hello Haskell-cafe,
I'm writing to discuss the future of the package cryptonite, including scenarios where it would be acceptable to take over the package - by me & Kazu (in CC), who already maintains hs-tls, and anyone else who is qualified and willing.
The current maintainer Vincent (in CC) has been unresponsive to several attempts to contact him by email over the past several months, and is not responsive to PRs [1] on github. He is not entirely dormant, he has made a bugfix release in January, however otherwise he does not communicate.
Based on [2] and some other hearsay, I understand that Vincent has "quit Haskell". The other maintainer, Oliver Chéron has also explicitly said that he has quit Haskell [3].
We have also attempted to contact other members of the haskell-crypto github group, however only one of them responded to say they don't feel they can make decisions for cryptonite.
Under what time frame does the list think it would be acceptable to take over the package? And additionally, are there any other interested volunteers to co-maintain? (I do not want to be the main maintainer, due to more direct interests in other topics.)
Best, Ximin
