Proteus is no longer maintained

[daniel-sullivan]

We (Charm) are interested in maintaining a fork.

Unfortunately our roadmap has further development starting in about 6 months when we are planning on moving to Protobuf for our IoT based warehouse management system integration.

It's a public holiday here in Japan at the moment but I'll double check with the team on Monday and of so we'd be happy to manage code reviews, merge requests at least in the short term until we can commence active development ourselves.

@marnovo can we close this issue, please?

Thanks!

Forgot to mention @dennwc the most recent maintainer as of a year ago.

[erizocosmico]

The company closed and the projects are no longer under maintenance. Feel free to hard fork it to some other account or organization.

[bendoerr]

@erizocosmico Thank you for the response.

Proteus is an awesome tool, I'm hoping that someone has the time to care for it.

Is anyone willing to maintain a new fork?

[daniel-sullivan]

I've received the go ahead from the higher ups to adopt this project. I'll get to work on triaging issues and copying them over.

We'll be focusing initially on core features. Including:

• Support for custom types
• go generate integration to simplify automated building
• Speed and reliability in generation

Once that's done we'll get into looking at any issues in RPC. Of course any pull requests are always appreciated!

I'll merge any pending pull requests which can be and then replace our fork with a duplicate.

Moving forward updates can be found at:

@daniel-sullivan That is great news! Thank you so much!

[godcong]

@daniel-sullivan I'm the first star
Thank you so much!

[marnovo]

@bendoerr indeed it is as @erizocosmico said.

Shouldn't this issue have been left open or at least a change to the README be made to direct people towards the charm-jp repo?
