@flemingm Whoops, sorry for not replying! I've been super busy, and NetSparkle work (besides any support requests) is on the back burner until August or so.
Yes, they did respond. The gist is that they could make my repo the base repo instead of a fork of a fork of a fork. However, I don't like this idea, because it makes history look weird.
So here's my current plan for NetSparkle:
- Create a NetSparkle organization
- Move my repo to the NetSparkle organization
- Work on a NetSparkle 2.0
- Release 2.0 to the more-official-looking NuGet and deprecate my current one (NetSparkle.New)
- Update this repo to point people to the new organization
That should remove people from having to search through a fork history to find the latest stuff and create an organization for when others want to help out with the project.
Thoughts/questions?

Yeah, that's another fork. Unfortunately, it hasn't been updated in over 4 years, so it's not really worth pointing people to. Not to toot my own horn, but I'm willing to accept and manage PRs and other issues over at my repo, and I'll be updating the NetSparkle NuGet eventually with a more up to date version (I have a version up at NetSparkle.New that I was using before being given access to the NetSparkle NuGet.)

Hello @Deadpikle,
yes I was the original author of this project but looking for a new coordinator. So should you be interested I'm happy to transfer this Repo to you.

Multiple old repo -- with mostly dead is an issue. I point out the other repository -- I should have said it has not be updated for a while.
It's been forked several times -- checking members: https://github.com/ashokgelal/NetSparkle/network/members
So if we can consulate into one active repository it will improve support and fixes for all.
@Deadpikle and @dei79.
Deadpikle repo. seem to Most active right now. and it was forked from the repository I quoted above.
Maybe notify people that forked Dirk's repo that they should consider moving to @Deadpikle and update the readme to tell people which is the active repository.
Let me know how I can help. I manage a group of programmers on Windows that are using an outdated version. I was check what was current when I stumbled on these repository.

@flemingm 👍 Makes sense! 😁 Let me know if your team needs help with the updates in the newer version.
@dei79 @flemingm Great!! I went ahead and emailed GitHub Support to see about the best way to do this. I'm not sure if moving everyone to my repo is best (and archiving this one?) or making a new organization and pointing everyone there is best or if some other idea is best. I don't want to lose any watchers/stars on either repo as presumably all those users would want to know of updates...but at the same time I don't want to lose the fork history either as that is sort of the project history too. I'm not sure what's best. Do you have both have any input on the best way to do this?

Any response form GitHub support?

Update after a long time:
The repo is now available at https://github.com/NetSparkleUpdater/NetSparkle. I'm still working on a 2.0 version, but it's coming along quite well so far. Feel free to hop over there and join!
Edit 20 April, 2021: 2.0 is out!
