Library status

[bombillazo]

Hello, I think Deno devs who use Postgres would like an honest and realistic status update on this library. I am using this package to create a driver for Kysely, and it's been working fine for most use cases, except now we're having type issues (actual data type issues, not TS types) when column types are all pretty much parsed as text, and there is no way to override them natively with the library in some type of configuration. An example is numeric, commonly used for values not exceeding that of an INT4, and FLOAT4 even though it fits in JS number, is still parsed as text.

Also, it's main dependency, std is starting to lag behind the latest version, causing some compatibility issues (0.160.0 vs 0.201.0) .

I tried out https://deno.land/x/postgresjs@v3.3.5, but I couldn't even get my code to run (the lib isn't Deno-specific).

I was looking into even contributing to modify this behavior, but I've seen no activity for months here, so I was wondering if it was going to be in vain or not.

Noticed the maintainer recently provided an update over in an issue: #434

Looks like it is currently looking for a new maintainer.

thanks for the heads up!

The library is under new maintainers, and I was fortunate to have been invited to support!
