pqueue - repository and maintainer (taking over)

Greetings, Regarding the pqueue package: 1) Does anyone have any (additional) contact details for the current maintainer/author, Louis Wasserman? 2) Is the package's repository available anywhere? The darcs link listed in the package 404s. 3) I would be willing to take over for basic maintenance if the current maintainer is unavailable. The pqueue package does not compile with ghc-7.10. Fixing requires just some quick changes (i have a working version locally). The last upload for the package is from 2012, but the author's github account lowasser shows some more recent activity. Yet I have not received a reply to my e-mail from six weeks ago. Lennart

Hi,
I have sent an email to the author two months ago about the same issue
without receiving an answer either.
My version of the package since then is here:
https://github.com/hsyl20/pqueue
In addition to making it compile with GHC 7.10, I have replaced all the
tabs with spaces to remove the warnings.

Hmmm. I may have a go at this over the weekend; I haven't done anything in
a while but I will try to make some time.

I think Herbert helped me recover a copy of the Darcs repo a while ago.
I'll check my email when I'm not traveling to see if I still have it.

I just checked: my changes are almost identical. I use slightly different imports to ensure backwards-compatability (i tested down to ghc-7.2.2) and i removed the Typeable.h warning. @Louis: ah, good to hear you are alive :)

Whoever takes over maintenance may want to consider producing unboxed versions.

Um. Hi.
I don't think I have much bandwidth to devote to maintaining this. I'd
prefer to retain author tags, but I'm happy if someone else wants to take
over routine maintenance.

Thanks for letting us know Louis!
Simplest way to proceed is for someone to give you their hackage user name
so you can add them to the maintainer group:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/pqueue/maintainers/edit
Cheers,

Greetings; finally an update: pqueue-1.3.0 is now live; finally ghc-7.10 compatibility :) (tested with ghc-7.2 through ghc-7.10.2rc1.) Louis kindly made me co-maintainer. I created a github repo, so if I forgot to update anything you can use the issue-tracker over there :) Lennart On 27/05/15 22:01, lennart spitzner wrote:
