[Haskell-cafe] Package takeover: bencoding

I'd like to take over maintainership of the bencoding package [1]. The package was not updated to work with ghc 8.0 and will likely require more fixes to work with ghc 8.4 and some work to make a Stackage release. There's a PR open for GHC 8.0, but it's still open for a year and a half [2]. I've tried to ask the author in the PR thread to make me a maintainer in January but it still hasn't happened. Cheers, Sergey [1]: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/bencoding [2]: https://github.com/pxqr/bencoding/pull/7
