There has been no commits to the #strfry master branch for 4 months with multiple older and newer PRs waiting to be reviewed and merged. @npub1yxpr...qud4 hasn't published any notes in ~3 months. On GitHub it seems like he is busy with some "Ethereum-vault-connector" project over the last 4 months. Does anyone know if Hoytech has said anything about the future of strfry? I sent him an email yesterday to ask him about the future of strfry but haven't gotten any response yet.

Strfry is foss?
It is, it has a GPL-3.0 license
I'm not going anywhere and I'm certainly not going to be shitcoining. I think I'll start making a relay implementation for nostr in go.

I’ve used this for a couple go relay projects:
if you feel like reimplementing some of the primitives, like signing notes, without fat dependencies like go-nostr has, I’m interested.

Could always fork it 🤷♂️
Dude thanks so much for this. I did not know about it.
This is why I am loathe to depend upon software from people who are aren't passionate about the underlying protocol.
The devil is in the maintenance.

Have you seen this? I just happened to see it on the awesome-nostr list

No haven't heard about this one before but happy to see more relay implementations coming together
Yes but I don't know C++ so not much I can do with it
Did you hear anything since then? The status still seems to be the same.
I just spent some time writing a Chef cookbook for setting up strfry, but now I'm a bit worried about picking the wrong implementation for our new relay.
Nope, haven’t heard anything from him. Seems like a dead project to me unless someone forks it
