Maintenance status?
I am opening this issue to discuss the maintenance status of `passlib`! (please note that I am also myself an open-source maintainer and I don't feel entitled to anything here, just trying to share some useful info & concerns). I am a newcomer to `passlib` and only using it via Ansible, because it is required by default on Mac if one uses Ansible: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/f22231de203450128dbfcd3277799d759d861abd/lib/ansible/utils/encrypt.py#L94-L95 EDIT: :warning: soon **all** users Ansible will likely rely on `passlib` (see https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81949#issuecomment-1766693535). I am a bit concerned about its maintenance status, due to various hints: - the last public release was done 3 years ago - no recent commits And also issues like: - #186 - #185 - #148 The fact that it is used in Ansible (something largely used) is also a concern! It took me a bit of time to find the right place where discussion still occur (via [this comment](https://github.com/glic3rinu/passlib/issues/55#issuecomment-1487631731)). Is @eli-collins still maintaining the library? Has someone taken over? Happy to help out, by the way. Thanks! ### Impacted projects * ansible https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81949 * fast-api-users https://github.com/fastapi-users/fastapi-users/issues/1301 Please comment or edit so that we can measure the impact!
