Hi Jappie,

It is really sad, but I want to note that Muranushi-san, the original author of the package,
deceased several years ago [1]. I lament for his prominent talent.

I cannot see the procedure in the case maintainer is known to be deceased in Wiki page [2].
I think replacing *maintainer*  with *bereaved family of maintainer* makes sense, but I'm not sure.

With regards,

Hi,

I wish to take over the maintainership of the binary search package.
The company I work for (riskbook) currently uses binary search.
However the current version doesn't build from hackage because ghc
changed how setting files are used, so I made a PR simply deleting
that: https://github.com/nushio3/binary-search/pull/3
That has been several months ago and now I'm running against the same issue.

There hasn't been a from the author (nushio3), and the email address
CC'ed in here are full according to gmail.

With regards,
