Regarding the maintenance of the Cerberus package

[McSinyx]

Hi, I noticed that the wheel for version 1.3.4 is missing on PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/Cerberus/1.3.4/#files

In fact there is no wheel on pypi and few months back I dropped cerberus from molecule and switch using python-jsonschema, mainly due to lack of maintenance.

thanks for your inquiries.

indeed i haven't allocated time for maintenance (or even further development here) for a long while now.
i'm open to recruiting maintainer/s for the 1.3 series. given that the last bug fix was merged in last year's March (not considering improved documentation), it should mainly entail measurements to keep up with new Python interpreters and other developments in the ecosystem (e.g. packaging).

iirc i have about 90% of what a first release candidate of what a next major version may look like on disk. when i wrote that my conclusion was that i'd much rather have written it from scratch. considering the developments and trends of the last years i can nowadays think of various ideas what a next Cerberus may constitute.

ping @nicolaiarocci, your thoughts are certainly relevant, particularly with regard to Eve.
