Add additional repository maintainers
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Come August 2nd, this repository will have not have seen a release in one year. The only change made since that release was to update the FUNDING.yml
. Tesseract.js is also relying on Tesseract v4, when Tesseract v5 is available.
With nearly 150,000 monthly downloads and millions in total, this library has become a crucial part of many other projects. It deserves active maintenance and support.
Describe the solution you'd like
- Merge @Balearica's PR at naptha/tesseract.js-core#18 and do a release to adopt the performance gains of Tesseract v5.
- Open a call for new maintainers.
- Consider implementing the badges from "Is it maintained?".
Describe alternatives you've considered The only alternatives are to replicate the functionality Tesseract.js offers in a new library or rely on forks.
Additional context N/A
I've been added and will be working on a new release with Tesseract 5 along with other features/fixes.
Closing as I've released version 3.0.0, which contains significant performance improvements including the PR you link to above.
