Someone needs to be the active maintainer. I asked advice from a few
people in the open source community and their advice was to just take over. I'm sorry that part was not more democratic. Would you like to be the maintainer? I mean that sincerely. I don't need to be the maintainer, but I do want to see the library continue and improve. I plan to hand the reigns over in the future and I believe you know opengl and the haskell opengl well enough to fill that role.
I'm not against you being the maintainer, and I think I already stated in a private mail that I do not wish to be the maintainer (maybe I would volunteer to be a co-maintainer, but I don't have time to do even that at the moment). However, I'm involved with Haskell and OpenGL deeply enough that I care a lot about what happens, and I want to ensure that there is at minimum a public discussion about issues on which I disagree with the maintainer. But seriously, we should just focus on the actual issues instead of politics. For example I think I listed more than 5 independent reasons for having a different package (instead of just a new version) in case of large/incompatible changes. Also I'm against dropping OpenGL 2.0 support, though that's a lesser problem if the new bindings is a different package. I don't remember getting any reply on that. Balazs
