Transfering ownership

[Ogeon]

Long time, no see!

Earlier this week, I received an email from @mwallner (I hope you don't mind that I make this an open conversation) asking if I would like to transfer this repository to the @WiringPi organization. Like I mentioned in my response, I'm willing to do this, but I'm not going to resume development, myself. They would get it in its current state. This would also come with a transfer of crates.io ownership.

I decided to move the conversation here to give @Razican a chance to have a say. Your name is also on this, so I would like to know if you think this is a good idea before doing anything.

This is fine by me :) makes sense that someone with more time to spend on this works on it

I thought the same, and I see no reason to keep sitting on the name on crates.io, either. 🙂 Let me just figure out the practicalities, then, and I will transfer it to @mwallner sometime during the following week.

@mwallner, you should have received both an invite to the crates.io crate and a request for this repository. Once the transfer is done, you should probably want to edit the Cargo.toml file to have up-to-date info. The same with any links in the README.md file. You are free to refer to me for attribution and as part of the crate's history, but I hand over the full responsibility for any further development and for releasing new versions to you and @WiringPi. As mentioned, I do not intend to resume maintenance.

All of my own contributions to this repository under the MIT license may be re-licensed under the more common and permissive MIT OR Apache-2.0 dual license in the future. You may need to check with other contributors first. I'm not a lawyer and don't know what the intricacies may be.

Hey @Ogeon - big thanks to you and everyone who's contributed to rust-wiringpi so far!
We strive to bring back WiringPi as the go-to lib for system level and high-perf development, so having a convenient rust-wrapper is a must 😄

If you're interested, keep an eye out for a new release in the next 2-3 weeks, we're in the process of fixing ISR with the latest debian/ubuntu kernels - as soon as the release is out I'm going to start working on getting rust-wiringpi updated 🙂
