Is this library still maintained? #305

There are 17 open pull requests from as far back as 2013. I assume this library is not maintained anymore.

Hi,

I'm the original library author. I'm no longer maintaining it, I passed this responsibility to @travisjeffery some (or rather a quite long) time ago. He did awesome job with this for a long time (and I didn't regularly check what's happening with the library), but indeed I see that he stopped merging pull requests after Dec 2016.

I'll ping him if he's still interested in maintaining the library (if not, I'll be searching for a new maintainer).

Hi Jonny,

Unfortunately, Travis also can't maintain this lib any longer - so we need a new maintainer (I've updated README accordingly).

Maybe you would be interested (or know somebody who would like to take this responsibility)?

Hi @velesin thanks for getting back to me (and the community).

I've since moved on to just using https://github.com/tmpvar/jsdom and it works quite will even without the help of this great assertion and fixtures library.

@velesin AgileVentures might be interested in taking on maintainership of this library ...

Thanks for the idea @tansaku !

Do you have any experience with AgileVentures? (How to best contact them, if they can take the full maintainership over the project or only provide cintributors etc.). I've checked their page, but it is not fully clear for me.

hi @velesin - I'm the AgileVentures CoFounder. We use this project in a few of ours so are interested in it being maintained.

We are a charity with limited resources but do have an active community all working with open source. What do you think the best options are?

What we need the most is a new maintainer for this library. If you have an active OS contributors community, maybe you could spread the news that the library seeks for a new maintainer? I'd gladly give a maintainer access to the lib for one or couple of people who would be interested. There is no active roadmap for new features right now, so the most important responsibilities would be to merge pull requests and upgrade the lib from time to time to work with the newest version of jQuery.

Why not ship it to the Pivotal labs group? http://github.com/jasmine

I'm interested in helping to maintain, if that is still needed. What is the current status?

Although, the suggestion about moving to Pivotal labs group is a good idea...

Hi Justin!

Yes, this is still needed. If you're interested and you feel you'll have the time to maintain the library properly, let me know - I'm open to adding you as a maintainer.
