Hey guys!

There's a long time since the original maintainer of TurbineCSS have abandoned the project. Since then, as I was a big user of the system, I talked to him and moved stuff to my ownership, maintaining the doc website alive and the repository open.

However, I haven't been using the project for some time now, and never had time to really take care of the code and improve it - first because I never got my hands dirty in its source code to feel free to mess around, and second because I never had free time for that.

So I was cleaning my files and stuff in the computer and found the project website there, and came here to see how stuff is. There's a couple of PRs taking dust and issues around there... And I would like to know if there's anyone willing to enter the team and work in the main repository, accepting PRs and stuff.

Calling people with forks that had some activity!

I'm afraid I'm no longer using this project, it was used by legacy code at a former job.

Best wishes in your search for a new maintainer!

Hi,

I am still actively using this project. However, I do not have time to take
over the project entirely but I am happy to assist with reviewing and
approving any PRs occasionally when I get some free time.
Thanks

Regards,
Brinley

Hi,

is still use Turbine in a couple projects (since i find LESS/SASS still
lacking higher functionality sometimes) if would like to keep it updated
with new CSS3 features and such.

Since I go through the source now and then to hunt bugs i could accept
patches, but i dont have time to maintain a "neutral" main repo. Maening I
would work in bug fixes and enhancements that i personally would find worth
it. For example i would work on any IE6 specific stuff, since that is not
worth the effort anymore, even if Turbine was once also created with old
IE's in mind:)

Greetings,

Yeah, that's fine (:

I'm happy for maintaining the structure behind the project, but once I've
migrated to LESS and I'm hardly going back. However, I do agree that the
project has its reasons and don't want it to die, so any help is awesome (:

I'll add you as a collaborator soon.

If you feel the need to update the website, the repository is there as
well. I'll subscribe to its feed so I can deploy new versions when needed.

Hi there,

I'm afraid I won't have enough time to spend on a project I'm not using anymore. I still think Turbine's approach to CSS is far superior to LESS/SASS etc, mostly thanks to its built-in vendor-expansion and per-client caching.

Though, I haven't been working with PHP for almost 2 years now, and the project that was using it is not in active development anymore. I might go back to it in a few months from now, in which case I'll definitely chime back in.

Best of luck with maintaining that repo, and don't hesitate to call again if a serious need emerges.

Regards,
Matti
