Rrule: Is this library still maintained?

Not a lot of activity in the last one year. https://recordnotfound.com/rrule-jkbrzt-45496/activity I am inclined to say its not being actively maintained. But agree, a lot of good work has been done in this library!

Coasted a bit through the forks, and there's a lot of good stuff there that'd totally be worth merging. Someone spending two days could make a serious dent, and a week would bring this library up to par and fix most of the issues people are addressing (e.g. working exdate & timezone support) centrally.

I searched npmjs and found a couple forks but nothing indicating they would take over development, so I'm stepping up.

I forked the latest, patched in the good-looking (i.e. adds passing tests) pull requests, and published it on npm as rrule-alt. Github page is https://github.com/arolson101/rrule-alt

I'm trying to keep with the spirit of the original project in hopes that rrule development will once again resume and I can get rid of rrule-alt.

I'm not planning on doing any substantial development (e.g. timezone support) but will entertain pull requests that pass tests and are in spirit of the original.

@arolson101 thanks for your work! I've now released master as 2.2.0. It would great to integrate your changes from rrule-alt to rrule.

@jakubroztocil good to see you're back!

The only substantive changes I made were to merge the changes in pull requests #125, #128, #141, #146, and #158. Also I added and updated a typescript definition file.

It might be easiest to just handle these pull requests yourself than for me to attempt to create one for all my changes (I have intermixed changes of 'rrule' to 'rrule-alt'). (I'm not very good at git stuff.) If you're interested I can create a pull request for the definition file.

Any help needed to get the pull requests mentioned by @arolson101 merged in? I am particularly interested in #128.

Yes, I'm looking for people to help maintaining rrule!

@jakubroztocil we use rrule.js in @MakePlans but as our usage is not very comprehensive I don't know the code that well but happy to help with some housekeeping with the more basic issues.

@espen great, I've invited you as a collaborator

@jakubroztocil I’d be willing to help out and merge the changes I made in rrule-alt, and thus get rid of the fork

@arolson101 perfect! You're a collaborator now as well.

I've also created a Gitter room for this project: https://gitter.im/rrule-js/Lobby

Ciao @jakubroztocil! @http-teapot and I are working on a calendar app (getplan.co) and we would love to fix and merge problems

@Zizzamia @http-teapot awesome. Added you guys as collaborators.

I think we can close this issue out as "yes, still maintained"!

awesome work @arolson101, thanks! 👏

Great work @arolson101, I saw you updated the version to 2.2.7. 🔥 🚀 🌕
Do you need user permission from @jakubroztocil to publish on npm?
The last release was 11 months ago

Also, one last thing, do you need help with creating tags and a CHANGELOG, they are pretty straightforward I can help with that if you want.

@espen thanks!
@jakubroztocil I need permission to publish on npm
@Zizzamia I would appreciate any help you can offer; I don't really know what I'm doing 🤷‍♂️

@arolson101 you should now be able to ship the new release on npm 🎉

@jakubroztocil thanks! I was able to publish

@arolson101 awesome 🎉🚀

@arolson101 would you please list all the released changes in the Changelog section of the readme?

@jakubroztocil done
