I need some assistance in releasing a new version, there is support for redis sentinel now. @jezdez or @jdufresne can you help?

thanks @jdufresne, I would be glad to maintain the project. If possible with the help of @terencehonles which seems active and interested in the project.

No dependency issue, have a look at `ShardedClient` which has `.expire()` defined which means you have to change `ShardedClient` as well
