Dear good people at postmanlabs, please transfer this package back to its author and to the PSF over at https://github.com/psf/httpbin . Time is not standing still, and this package really deserves some more love and care, and a community united in one place and not split up. It would be great for the whole python eco system, if this could get sorted out. Big, big please!

Why fork? we were unable to get ahold of the folks at postmanlabs to maintain the original project, and httpbin is used for other packages within the python ecosystem, such as pytest-httpbin which is in turn used by packages such as requests so we have forked this package. That means that httpbin.org is not actually backed by this repo, but the httpbin package is. Confusing right? Know anyone at postmanlabs? get in touch.

This project hasn't seen any movement in 6 years and it sounds like @kennethreitz wants to hack on it. Seems like an easy decision.

How did they became the owner in the first place? Last time I checked (several years ago) it was https://github.com/requests/httpbin. It's very confusing.

We do have a fork running at https://github.com/psf/httpbin to support various packages that are using httpbin as a dependency. No luck getting ahold of anyone at postman.

@VShingala @codenirvana @coditva Someone still alive at postman? At least reachable for a statement?

since postmanlabs took over the repo only to ignore it, I found this alternative:
