David:

1. thank you for the plugin, it served us well
   it seems it has reached the end of its useful life (?)

2. just to let you know, we produced the next incarnation
   of scala plugin: https://github.com/random-maven/scalor-maven-plugin

3. in case you would like to participate in the "new life",
   we sent you collaborator invitation to join the project, it will need support

Thank you,

Andrei.

@Andrei-Pozolotin,

Thanks for the invitation. I'll take a look, but no contributions (planned)t.

I let the issue open (with tags) to be visible, when you though confident enough, you can PR an update in the README and the doc to add link to scalor.

I wish you success

As it looks, this project is not end-of-life. It works well and is also the reference scala maven toolchain, e.g. in Polyglot Maven or as a basis for Bloop. Also, it sees new releases. It looks to me, the only thing that will not magically happen is a port to zinc 1.x, unless someone provides it via PR.

As the note about scalor is already in the README, I'm for closing this issue.

I said to @Andrei-Pozolotin that the project is +/- EOL, because I started the project 10+ years ago. And only do maintenance on it (minimal support). I do less & less scala, and I don't use maven at work.

PS: And didn't find long-term maintener/contributor (eg for zinc,...) . I thought to remove zinc support from this plugin because the old version generate trouble, issue and nobody to fix it, or to migrate to zinc 1.0 (I never used zinc).

Zinc support has been upgraded to latest Zinc. Compile server has been dropped for now though, but might come back some day with Bloop.

Should this be closed?
