Hi everyone! I’ve been using the nim-i18n
(https://github.com/Parashurama/nim-i18n) library, but it has several critical
issues and hasn't been updated in a long time. It doesn't even compile on modern
versions of Nim.
I've already fixed the bugs and created a PR
(https://github.com/Parashurama/nim-i18n/pull/6), but the author is unresponsive
to my emails. Since the project appears to be completely abandoned, I’m unsure
about the proper Nimble conventions:
1. Is it acceptable to submit a fork to Nimble under the same name, or should I
register it as a new package (e.g., i18n or nim-i18n2)?
2. Is there a process to take over an existing abandoned entry in the Nimble
directory when the author is inactive and the code is broken?
3. What is the best way to handle this to avoid confusion for other users?
I'd appreciate any advice on the community standards for such cases. Thanks!
