Project maintenance status?

[ccoVeille]

Hi @Antonboom

I'm sending a message in a bottle again as I did 6 months ago with

• Are you OK and safe Anton? #172

There are blocking issues that need to be fixed (= the linter can break code)

• negative-positive: bad suggested fix for len comparison #210 (hi @denik 👋)
• formatter: warn on msgAndArgs when msg is not of string type #202

And a few false-positive that could be fixed:

• error-is-as: ErrorAs warning when using generic target #213 (hi @uudashr 👋)
• false positive on expected-actual #174 (hi @mmorel-35 👋)

Some improvement that should be considered:

• float-compare: detect and warn on zero delta/epsilon values in InDelta/InEpsilon #211 (hi @oschwald 👋)
• formatter: remove empty message string in assert.Equalf conversions (autofix) #194 (hi @ghouscht 👋)
• formatter: warn on non-string the first single argument #201
• empty: support empty strings, Zero for strings and len #119
• error-is-as: support assert.NotErrorAs #13

I provided a fix for #210 one month ago with

• fix: negative positive with type conversion #212 and I'm waiting for feedback from you.

I opened a PR more than 8 months ago to address #119

• empty: support empty strings, Zero for strings and len #129

And I got no feedbacks at all.

There are also a few PRs where I think their author silent quitted because of the lack of reactivity:

• new checker http-const #155
• doc: update error-compare and define unwrapped-error #162

@Antonboom your GitHub timeline is pretty flat compared to the past.

So I'm asking, are you still maintaining the project?

• if yes, then do it
• if you need help, would you agree to grant me as a maintainer? I could work with @mmorel-35

If I don't have a clear response in the next month, I will maintain my fork of your project and start to maintain it. At some point, I might have to ask @ldez if he agrees to switch to my fork for golangci-lint.

I don't do it for ego, but because this project deserves to be maintained.

Respectfully,

Christophe

Anton is an important member of the golangci-lint community, I contacted him privately, and I will not take any decision before receiving direct feedback from him.

Of course, I appreciate. Thanks @ldez
