Project unmaintained

@svartalf I believe the project needs another maintainer since the issues and pull requests have no one to tend to them. Probably would be good if there are other people to help maintain actions-rs, like outdated template (v2 instead of v3).

Not sure if author will reply here, so I will email him.

I am interested in maintaining open source software though DAOs. Basically, users get a say in how a project develops but maintainers also get paid.

Note: I don’t work for codebase and their solution is still in early stages but something like their governance system would help situations where a maintainer gets busy with other things. I would start by helping codebase get a fully working system but it would help to have a few open source projects to understand what works for people. No idea whether the codebase devs would have me but I think we need a solution like this and would help to make it happen.

I tried contacting @svartalf via email from his GH profile on June 16th, however, haven’t heard from him back.

Given his last contribution to actions-rs was in Nov 2020, I think the best course of action would be to fork the entire organization.

Personally, I’d love to see this go under the https://github.com/rust-unofficial umbrella since such a move makes it less likely for the project to go stale again, or even (ideally) https://github.com/orgs/rust-lang/repositories?q=action … Perhaps we could try to ping someone from rust-lang, I saw @steveklabnik showing interest in one of the PRs here some time ago - maybe you could help us get the ball rolling? Having GHActions run officially by the organization mitigates a bunch of security risks…

Otherwise, we can create a new organization. Not gonna lie, actions-rs is I think a fantastic name, but maybe we can come up with something as good.
