Re: haskell/bytestring stalled?

I’m reasonably comfortable saying duncan should not be in the loop on this stuff. He hasn’t been active or communicating accessibly in a while. And that’s fine. Peoples lives are complicated and busy. Let’s move forward. Let’s move forward and just make sure we do a very meticulous and thoughtful execution of progressing bytestring. (On a personal level, some of my fall oss plans fell on the wayside after my 12 yr old niece got very sick in September). On Thu, Dec 19, 2019 at 3:25 AM Fumiaki Kinoshita wrote:

Hello,

I see some activity on GitHub; this strongly motivates me to start doing something concrete! Just looking at the situation, it definitely needs more reviewing - also I'm going to add tests and benchmarks to the pull requests.

Given apparent absence of dcoutts, I'm curious we organise this in the future - currently a number of things are blocked on his response. If he's unable to spend time on it for some reason, I think that's much better to have Herbert or someone else as a primary maintainer.

Your email prompted me to review a few PRs today:

Thank you, reviewing PRs is one of the things that definitely helps and what I was hoping for when I wrote

That being said, if you or others want to help out with projects I (co)maintain such as `bytestring`, please get into contact with me. There are things you can do to help with the review of PRs and other tasks that benefit from as many hands or eyes as possible and which would reduce the workload during the focused batch-phase when the careful dedicated release processes is initiated.

But please; let's coordinate directly -- we've done so frequently via Hangout during your GSOC in the past -- than devolving into unhelpful public shade-throwing at how maintenance is currently performed; that is, if the goal is to actually help the project.
