Hi all, I'm wondering if there are still active users out there of http-enumerator. Four months ago I released http-conduit, and since then, my development efforts have gone almost exclusively there. At this point, I'm not longer actively using http-enumerator on any of my projects, and while I've backported any security fixes to http-enumerator, it is otherwise not be updated. I see three possibilities for the future of http-enumerator: 1. Deprecate it in favor of http-conduit 2. Someone else takes over as maintainer 3. Turn it into a frontend for http-conduit, exposing an enumerator interface. This will likely, though not necessarily, result in API breakage I'm curious how others feel on this. If I don't hear anything back on the topic, I'll assume that no one is interested in http-enumerator, and thus will opt for option (1). Michael

If no one else wants to be responsible for maintaining, I vote for deprecation.

OK, since no one seems interested in it anymore, I've deprecated the package.
