update frequency of RethinkDNS

[sudo-joe]

Hello,

wondering why RethinkDNS is not anymore updated since many month (v055n - 9 Jun, 2024).

Does that mean, all issuus are fixed? Or that project is discontinued? Or that additional donations are required?

+1. AmneziaWG #1437 (comment) was implemented in November, but is still unreleased. If there is something blocking it, can you provide a stable enough commit where manual build is possible?

We intend to have a "monthly" automated release setup (the code for it is done, but we haven't activated it yet). Our sole focus is on getting v055o out (as it has been delayed by over 8 months!)

None of the above, but appreciate Sponsorship. The expenses have been astronomical in comparison to the sponsorship money we receive today (which is close to ~$1000 per year, which barely for 2 months of our infrastructure costs, let alone the bills of 2 developers that work on this project): https://github.com/sponsors/serverless-dns/ or https://svc.rethinkdns.com/r/sponsor

Btw, the development happens on the lead developer's feature branch (which for the next release is at: https://github.com/hussainmohd-a/rethink-app/tree/v055n), and you can see the development going on in the network engine (which has seen 1500+ commits since v055n, if you're keeping track) here: https://github.com/celzero/firestack/tree/n2

Maybe a bit irrelevant, but it sounds pretty 'dangerous' to have all of that work sitting in a fork instead of just a 'shared' branch within the GitHub Organization. One of the key points of having an Org is that it's easier to collaborate when working within an Org (e.g. branching).
