Still active?

[mmzoo]

Hi!

We're actively developing a gem with the same name. I'm not sure your gem is still active or not? If it is not really used, we would like to take over the name on rubygems and publish it for everyone to use. It's been used internally for some time now, but we believe it's useful for a larger audience.

Our functionality is similar to the one you propose, only that the arguments need to be specified beforehand much l like keyword arguments (as opposed to your *args splat). That's basically implemented using dry-initializer.

EDIT: And use include MethodObject so you don't have to inherit.

Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks!

I have no idea if anyone is using this gem. https://rubygems.org/gems/method_object doesn't seem to say. I'm not actively developing it anymore. I'm also not sure how to give you ownership of the gem name. Happy to give it up.

Hi Jared! Super, thank you!

I took over and gave away a few gems before, it's quite simple. First, you use the following command to add our team as co-owner of your gem:

gem owner --add REDACTED method_object

That gives us the right to remove your ownership of the gem. (You could remove yourself, too, but I don't recommend that to avoid mistakes).

For whomever was using method_object up to this day, versions 0.0.1 to 0.1.1 will continue to be served by rubygems indefinitely as is. Nobody can change any code which has been published through rubygems.

We can, however, publish new releases with our code. That would be version 1.0.0 and everything above that.

Again, thank you very much!

PS: I will redact this public Github post so that it does not contain our email address any more. I assume you will receive an email notification of this post, there you can see the email address.

can you please give me the link to the github repo you intend to publish from so I might update the README on this repo? thanks

Yes! This is the repo: https://github.com/bukowskis/method_object

We're in the process of preparing it for release in this PR: bukowskis/method_object#2

[jaredatron]

Yes, it worked just splenditly! I recently changed the email address that was associated with our rubygems company account and didn't update the gravatar yet. We can now remove you from the gem and are looking forward to releasing shortly.

Cool, thank you!
