Maintenance of text-icu (Bryan O'Sullivan)

Package text-icu (Bryan O'Sullivan) seems to be unmaintained since 2017
https://github.com/haskell/text-icu/issues/30 with the last release in 2015 https://hackage.haskell.org/package/text-icu-0.7.0.1 Unfortunately, the latest release is incompatible with ICU 68. Has anyone heard from Bryan recently? I mean, he is a Haskell celebrity... His last activity on github.com was in August 2017. Anyone interested in maintaining this package? Since Agda depends on text-icu, I could stand in as a temporary maintainer to at least merge the most important pull requests, until there is a new maintainer.

If it turns out that Brian is no longer going be looking after the project, or would be happy to share the burden, I'd be interested in co-maintaining it. I think it is generally best to have more than one active maintainer for a mature package. My interest in this space is largely via DNS and IDNA2008, where for my own projects I'm maintaining a private fork of idna-hs (abandoned by its original maintainer), which depends on text-icu via stringprep (though perhaps only needed for IDNA2003, which should no longer be used). -- Viktor. _______________________________________________ Libraries mailing list [hidden email] http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libraries |

The easiest would be that Bryan O'Sullivan, if he surfaces again, gives us write access to his bos/text-icu repo on github (for the continuity of issues/PRs---I don't think one can fork a repo including issues/PRs), and upload rights on hackage.

Bryan helpfully transferred ownership of
* attoparsec * criterion * statistics * double-conversion * math-functions * aeson * text-icu * mwc-random * wreq * critbit * text-format Haskell.org (as a holding mechanism) on 8 Dec. This was a holding mechanism while we figure out who the new maintainers should be. Ben Gamari knows about this -- ask him. But I think Bryan is now out of the critical path.

Thanks Simon, for the update! (I hope it is nothing bad.)
@Ben: Could you set us up? (And would that include write permissions on bos/text-icu or a new repo?)
