Current project status?

[aspiers]

There have been no commits for almost 2 years, and the installation instructions seem out of date, as reported in #49. This leads me to wonder if the project is still maintained? It seems that other forks are more active. Thanks for any info you can shed.

As far as I'm concerned it is still maintained, but pretty much feature complete. The only main bug I'm concerned about is #46, and the tough thing to fix there is the migration path for older caches. Packaging and documentation could do with improvement (eg. #47). Apart from that my point of view is that glacier-cli is mainly feature complete, works as intended and so doesn't need to be "active".

OK great, thanks for the info and rapid reply!

wouldn't it make sense then to bump the version number to 1.0.0 ? Current version at the moment is 0.1.0 which does not signal "feature complete" :)

Sure. Maybe we should fully convert to Python 3 (shebangs etc), and also sort out CI in Travis or similar. There are (were?) some tests, but I'm not sure if they've rotted.

changing shebangs is not necessary, if you install glacier-cli with pip install . the generated glacier-cli script automatically has a shebang with the python version you used to install it.

concerning the tests and travis I created #79
