Transferring crate?

[workingjubilee]

Hello! I would be happy to take over this crate, certainly long enough to see it into a better place. Mostly, I would like to clean up its dependency tree so that code that depends on it can keep building on new compilers, as it is a nightly-only crate:

• punkt depends on a nightly feature(proc_macro_hygiene)
  • that blob of features has been incrementally stabilized over time, so maybe not required?
• punkt has rustc-serialize, a nightly-only crate, in its dependency tree
  • however, rustc-serialize is... probably not much longer for this world.

Three other crates depend on this one, now, so if this could be made-stable, those crates will be able to continue building into the future.

Hello! Yes! This crate could definitely use some help as I have not been maintaining it. I've added you as a contributor. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help. Thank you!

I want to use this crate so I'd love to see this work get done. I have some capacity to contribute too

Oh dear, I missed the notification, I suppose.

@workingjubilee if you have publishing rights for this crate, it'd be great to get a release that contains #15. :) Without such a release, rust-lang/rust#134273 will break the latest released version of this crate.
