Hi, I’d like to help with maintaining of mentioned packages: - http://hackage.haskell.org/package/edit-distance http://hackage.haskell.org/package/edit-distance - http://hackage.haskell.org/package/lattices http://hackage.haskell.org/package/lattices Max doesn’t seem to be active on GitHub, there are - a PR to edit-distance fixing the build on GHC 7.10, open for 26 days: https://github.com/batterseapower/edit-distance/pull/3 https://github.com/batterseapower/edit-distance/pull/3 - a PR to lattices opened at Jan 8 2015 (open for over 3 months already) https://github.com/batterseapower/lattices/pull/3 https://github.com/batterseapower/lattices/pull/3 I could take over the maintainership of the packages, if Max doesn’t respond in two weeks - Oleg Grenrus

I have a pull request open for over a year. It was minor, so I didn't follow up on it: https://github.com/batterseapower/edit-distance/pull/2 - a PR to lattices opened at Jan 8 2015 (open for over 3 months already)

There have been other, similar requests to Max within the last 2 years or so, and I don't think there were any responses. I would be in favor of somebody else taking over as maintainer. Regards, Sean

Hi Oleg, edit-distance is also being tracked here: https://github.com/haskell-infra/hackage-trustees/issues/19 Please update it with a link to this discussion. You can also open a new issue for lattices so we can keep track of the progress for it as well. On Sun, Apr 26, 2015 at 5:50 PM, Sean Leather wrote:

Opened a trustee issue: https://github.com/haskell-infra/hackage-trustees/issues/31 https://github.com/haskell-infra/hackage-trustees/issues/31 I have no hurry with lattices, as it compiles with 7.10 ok. - Oleg

I use http://hackage.haskell.org/package/lattices heavily so I care what becomes of it, but haven't had issues with it. I too have noticed he's not around though with his other packages. On Sun, Apr 26, 2015 at 1:22 PM, Oleg Grenrus wrote:

Hi, to make it clear. I don’t want to drastically change lattices or edit-distance; I use them and they are ok, wouldn’t use otherwise. There are only few things on top of my mind, I could make as a maintainer: - add Eq, Ord, Show etc instances to data types there: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/lattices-1.2.1.1/docs/Algebra-Lattice-Dro... - make point-wise instances for Lattice b => Lattice (a -> b) (same way as with Monoid) - write tests edit-distance would benefit from `cabal test` too (there are tests, but as executables). Then they’ll be run by stackage builds. - Oleg

There have been other, similar requests to Max within the last 2 years or so, and I don't think there were any responses. I would be in favor of somebody else taking over as maintainer. As I understand it, after a period of tremendous productivity, Max is no longer active in the Haskell community. I doubt that he would be offended if you took over maintainership. On the contrary, it would be a way of keeping his past contributions up to date and useful to today’s community.
