Project abandoned / dead / maintained? #143
Description
Activity
@jmthomas just recently I made the decision to do final cleanup on #80 and merge it into my fork's
masterbranch and start using my fork. I really love this library and want to keep it all centralized as much as possible, but there are very devastating flaws with breaking unicode that I fixed a couple years ago and has been doing well.I'm willing to maintain my fork, or possibly shepherd it within the WordPress organization. still would rather that @NeilFraser provide guidance here, or provide some way to keep this repo active. otherwise I would invite you to try my branch out or follow my fork once I merge it.
Reacted by schmikWe're going to try moving ahead with a private deployment of the fork (it's for a closed-source feature). We aren't planning to customise it, so we will switch to a public fork should one become available.
Reacted by schmikAll: I have now merged in my own fixes for the split-surrogate issue and it's in my fork's
mainbranch. I intend on maintaining my fork, with consent from @NeilFraser, but I cannot maintain this fork because of the Google ownership.I will do my best to be responsive and active, though my time is also limited. Your contributions are invited at dmsnell/diff-match-patch and I'll see what I can do to slowly address the backlog of PRs open on this repo.
@dylans sounds great. would you be willing to help publish an
npmpackage? I suspect we'll need to change the module style and possibly generate both a CommonJS module as well as an ESModule. Because I think it will involve multiple steps, I've created a tracking issue for it in my fork.Reacted by Jan KubicaFantastic! I haven't had a chance to finalise our private copy yet, so I will gladly switch to yours 👍
I completely understand that this means using your github project, not google's, from here on out.
Reacted by Dennis Snell@TheSpyder please be aware that there is no
npmmodule yet, so you will need to import the JavaScript file directly, as I assume you already know.Reacted by Andrew HerronThat will be not be harder than what I was trying to do already 😂

@NeilFraser, @nikolas, @alur: Is this project still active? I haven't seen any commits for 4 yrs. This is an awesome library that a lot of downstream tools are using so I hope that it is still actively maintained. If it is not maintained is there something new that Google has moved on to that the community should consider? Thanks!
