Can someone merge my prawn-table PR?

[rsynnest]

I spent some hours debugging, writing, and submitting a PR to prawn-table: prawnpdf/prawn-table#128

After no activity I checked to see the last PR merged was in 2017 https://github.com/prawnpdf/prawn-table/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed

The README of prawn-table states:

This is currently an experimental extraction and is not actively maintained by the Prawn maintainers. Yet, Prawn maintenance team will help you integrate your pull requests. Please reach out to the Prawn maintenance team if you are interested in helping maintaining this project.

There is no link to any contact information, looks like a recent move from Google groups to here so, giving this a shot!

@pointlessone when you have a sec, would you be willing to check out this PR? It's very simple and fixes a bug that is pretty frustrating and still affects all users (basically un-fucks vertical alignment for prawn-table).

Any chance you can take a look now?

[pointlessone]

Any chance we can have a test or two?

Hi @pointlessone and @rsynnest
Here at OpenProject we are relying on Prawn aswell. Since we also develop and maintain a large Ruby Open Source Software we really appreciate your effort. If you are interested our team could also support you with the table features. Please let me know if you are interested.
Best

@lindenthal If you want to improve prawn-table you don't need anyone's permission but if you want it, I certainly would appreciate if you reviewed and addressed feedback on the open PRs. That would certainly help merging them sooner.

@lindenthal thanks for reminding me about this, I haven't circled back to write tests here, I would gladly take some help on that. I'm a Ruby noob and don't know the codebase, and have been too daunted/time-constrained to dive back in.

I think anything to help pointlessone with maintenance is probably the biggest contribution, he is solo maintainer of prawn I think still. I recommend reading his 2021 status update, you can also maybe talk to petergoldstein as he's been very active lately.
