It is evident that this project is not maintained. I would like to take over. Thoughts?

First I'd like to thank you for getting in touch and showing interest. I'm not averse to handing off blessings to someone with more time to devote. However, when handing off a project, I like the new maintainer to have a history of contributions so I know my users are in good hands. Clearly you have ideas about directions to take blessings. Why not open a few PRs, and we can discuss them?

Thanks for the reply. Every project I have contributed to, I have known the person and given commit access. I am terrible with PRs. I know that this is a huge question, but would you consider giving me commit access? Before you say no, please hear me out. I will create a folder in the master branch called /testing and copy the blessings source into it. I will add to this and it will be like a safe testing environment for me.

I will not edit anything outside of /testing without your explicit permission. Once you see that I have good ideas and I care, you can swap your source with mine. I know this sounds like a hastle, but you would really be doing me a solid.

@PyDever you can achieve the same using git forking and git branching and without having to have commit access for root repo.

I am sorry to pry over this conversation between owner and future owner, but I just wanted to share my git alternative. All the best 👍

Ah. So I would create a testing branch and push my ideas to that?

Would you mind creating a seperate branch for me to work in?

You should fork it, have a look here on how to do that:

No for real, thank you for your attempt at help. It is appreciated regardless of its effectiveness. This is not sarcasm. The more I type, the more I feel like this sounds like sarcasm.

@PyDever Oops, sorry, it just looked like there was some misunderstanding going on here : )
