Adrian, you probably know this, but: (1) Instead of a takeover, you could ask Tomas Carnecky to become merely a co-maintainer on hackage which would put you in power to sync the github and hackage versions. (2) At least with stack you can specify a github fork as dependency of your project. It is not nice, but I was forced to do the same when a repo owner ignored my pull request. For example # cabal file. # Note: xls-0.1.3 is the latest hackage version build-depends: xls >= 0.1.4 # stack.yaml extra-deps: - git: https://github.com/olafklinke/xls.git commit: 4e7a2ba639cc72678e4e40a06afd3c481d63f2e3 In your case, though, 0.1.0.0 is the package number on hackage as well as in the more up-to-date githup repo, so I don't know how the resolver would figure out which to use. Safer would be to fork and increment the cabal package version number, then proceed as above. You can later simply delete the entry in stack.yaml when your fork has been merged into hackage. Olaf
Hi,
I'd like to request to take over the css-syntax hackage! The lead developer of which seems to be barely active. They did accept someone else's year-old pull request to fix an issue I was having regarding upgrading to Text v2 upon being prodded, but hasn't responded to communications since regarding publishing this update to Hackage.
I am developing my own (NLnet-funded) noJS browser engine in Haskell, and have released several modular components of it to Hackage in the hopes they will be useful to others for other purposes. I've benefited tremendously from Haskell CSS Syntax & would like to see the project continue, I can manage it as one of those subcomponents. I do not see much further development being required, especially considering how stable the W3C strives to keep part of the spec extremely stable.
My communications to Haskell CSS Syntax: https://github.com/wereHamster/haskell-css-syntax/issues/5 https://github.com/wereHamster/haskell-css-syntax/pull/4
Thoughts?
