I am not using NUR directly myself actually for a while, but it seems that many other people do.
For me personally flakes have replaced the schema that I also introduced with NUR.
Therefore, I would like to transfer the project to a new maintainer.
The work is not too much for the most part as most repositories are self-contained.
However there are probably infrastructure and CI that could be improved.

I set the 01.01.2025 as a deadline, if there is no new maintainer found until than, I may archive the project by then.

@Mic92 Hi, I'm learning about Nix and am interested in becoming a maintainer.

@vedantmgoyal9 I looked up and you don't seem to have a nur repository or any other nix-related contributions. What is your motivation for maintaining this repository?

@Mic92 As I said, I'm learning about Nix, and, a few hours ago, I made my first contribution to nixpkgs too. I'm developing a project RustReleaser, which is basically "goreleaser, but for rust", and was looking to support publishing packages to a nur. That's where my Nix journey began, and I'm yet to learn more about it :)

I don't think I'm personally qualified to maintain this project, but I would like to co-maintain with others so I can learn Nix from them. I'm currently maintaining two packages from nixpkgs and contributing to some nix-community projects (mostly regarding the Emacs ecosystem).

I'm planning to use NUR more, so I don't want it to be archived anytime soon. 🤔

I‘m also new to Nix language and I'd be interested to dive deeper and be a co-maintainer of NUR.

I need to be a maintainer of NUR.

I've got a lot of experience with nixpkgs, although I have no experience with NUR. I'd be happy to be a maintainer if it can avoid NUR shutting down.
