Re: PyBitmessage is not dead. Ignore the FUD.

Greetings!

I am interested in adding support for Bitmessage to Slixfeed news bot.

Support is currently provided to XMPP and it will be extended to Email,
IRC and Session.

I think Peter and gang just got tired of responding to this recurring
claim. I wouldn't even expect a rebuttal from them at this point.
 
Newer forks have been under development, one in Python3 and one in
Rust.
 
Here is the PyBitmessage fork in Python3:
 
https://github.com/kashikoibumi/PyBitmessage
 
Somebody should help the maintainer. I am no longer a Pythonista or I
would. I dumped Python after the 2.7 sunset as I expect they will
likely break Py3 equally bad some day. I will be occasionally
reviewing Koibumi's bash scripts, build scripts and documentation
looking for errors or points of improvement.
