Abandoned?

[jjakob]

There have been no commits for a long time. There are waiting pull requests for open issues. No release has ever been made.

Gentoo recently removed the package from its repository:
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=baefd888768843d9c6404c57592038ff6b829c35
https://bugs.gentoo.org/888293
https://bugs.gentoo.org/888271

I forked it and made the necessary changes: removed future imports, fixed Python > 3.6 compatibility, etc.: see #26

I also merged all the open PRs from this repo into my fork's master branch.

I don't want to become a maintainer or developer for this but I use it maybe a couple times a year so I would still like to keep using it, which made me do the above work.

If all the PR's get merged it would be great if there was also a tag and release made so that it can be put into more OS repositories.

What have other people been using instead of this? Are they still on old Python versions where it works or do they use something else?

Hi Jernej, The intention to come back to quasselgrep occasionally surfaces, but I almost never use quassel any more and hence even rarer do I need to use the tool, so motivation is lacking, besides time. I also never wrote tests for it so coming back to it after so long means it's hard to have confidence that changes don't break anything. I do intend to get through the PRs still, but I can't make any promises about when.
