Hi fellow Rakuists,

I’m a total Raku n00b, and I’m looking for guidance. The late Jeff Goff‘S Readline package doesn’t work on Macs anymore, which makes Rakudo Star kind of broken in Apple-land — at least it is when installed via Homebrew.

I have a patch written, but don’t know whether to ask PAUSE to transfer the package maintainership to me, fork it (as Term::Readline or somesuch)... or something else.

It’s not a hugely complex package, and I can see myself maintaining it. (I’m currently on the core team of a moderately popular Node.js package, so I know the drill.)

I read about Jeff, and he seems like an amazing person. So I want to be very respectful.

Please let me know what you think is best.

Thanks,
Daniel Lathrop

p.s. it already feels great to be in the Raku community. Everyone is so darn nice.
