(Read before posting) Project unmaintained?

[pataquets]

Some metrics (as of Jun '22):

• Last project commit is 3y ago.
• 21 open issues (oldest from 2015), with support (non-feature) requests unanswered since 3y ago.
• 8 open PR (oldest from 2016), incl. 4 without any review dating 4y ago (even a trivial doc fix from mine at Readme: fix formatting #200).

I'm experiencing some already reported, unresolved, issues.
For those like me looking for alternatives, you might want to check these packages:

• https://github.com/blahgeek/emacs-devdocs-browser
• https://github.com/astoff/devdocs.el

EDIT: Opening the project to [co-]maintainership or adoption would be fine, perhaps posting it here, if it maintainers are no longer interested.

Too bad the project is unmaintained. Hopefully some generous saint will step up and take over 🙏

Don't hold your breath, @chraibi. Dash is a commercial product.
Also, I'm not sure if anyone at Dash is getting notified, since it looks like current maintainers are not employees.
Pinging @areina & @kidd directly in case they might want to appoint new maintainers.

@pataquets thanks for the pointers. Caught wind of this from a dash post on HN that mentioned the repo and was disappointed to discover it was abandonware.

Wish there was helm integration in devdocs. Maybe a good project for a couple lazy weekends.

@pksebben I also came from HN full of enthusiasm with big portion of dopamine flowing in my blood, but well. :-(

But it still mostly works

A Dash user pointed out this thread to me. I'm not involved in maintaining helm-dash in any way and I haven't been in contact with its maintainers, unfortunately.

Thanks for chiming in, @Kapeli.
Digging in your profile I've realized that this project is not affiliated with Dash, which was not obvious to me at first. In fact, my first comment was assuming precisely that.
Maybe some notice about this would prevent anyone getting the impression of Dash being unsupported.
I've edited the issue to suggest [co-]maintainership/adoption.
