Description
Hello, please feel free to correct any of my etiquette in how I post here.
I believe the Sunwait project on SourceForge currently sourced by MacPorts may have been abandoned, and there is a fork on Github which now has a significant bug fix the SourceForge repo doesn't have. (Not to mention the Github repo has adopted MacPort's compatibility patches.)
- Old SourceForge: https://sourceforge.net/p/sunwait4windows/
- New Github: https://github.com/klada/sunwait
- Bug Fix Details: https://sourceforge.net/p/sunwait4windows/discussion/general/thread/98fc17dd5f/
I have bug reports and patch suggestions on the SourceForge project that have gone unanswered for over a year now. The maintainer has not posted or updated anything in more than 3 years. By contrast, the Github repo was active just 2 weeks ago, responding to my pull request within 15 hours.
Not sure what typical FOSS community protocol is here, but I thought MacPorts might at least benefit from the bug fix.
Thanks!
