[Announcement] Passive maintenance mode about roadie

[jeremy]

Thanks for your creation and maintenance over the years, @Mange.

Your mentioning that you don't do Rails anymore made me wonder what kind of project you are doing nowadays?

I'm actually back on working on Rails since after I wrote that - it's been 4 years even. But at the time I was mostly doing Rust and Lua in my hobby hours, and non-Rails Ruby (API servers, tooling, GraphQL APIs, test helpers, etc.) and frontend Javascript at work.

Even though I'm back on Rails, the company I work for don't use ActionMailer for emails, but rather an Email-as-a-Service provider so non-developers can help out with the content and formatting of them.

Still mostly doing Lua (for Neovim and AwesomeWM) and Rust in my spare time, when I'm coding.

Since GitHub is a kind of Social Network, I hope it is not inappropriate to ask for some updates here.

I don't mind. 🙂
Perhaps subscribers of this issue would, though. If you want to keep conversing with me about it, feel free to email me at [email protected]. ❤️

Updating roadie-rails today; thus, just checking the repo.

@Mange what do you recommend we use now to create emails?

I don't know. You could still use Roadie and emails inside ActionMailer, or perhaps go with one of the multitude of Emaill-as-a-Service platforms like Mailchimp, Customer.io, Mailgun, etc.

It's not something I've actively working with anywhere currently, so I'm not all that in the game anymore.

Notice: A new maintainer has been added: @PikachuEXE

They may or may not decide to change maintenance status.

My position remain the same: I don't use this library and don't have motivation to do major things to it, but it is fairly stable and working so it doesn't require much more. It's basically "done".
