conv is unmaintained

c.f. https://github.com/rustsec/advisory-db/issues/2199

conv is one of the main two remaining usages of custom_derive, and is by the same maintainer, who has not been contactable.

https://github.com/DanielKeep/rust-conv/pull/14 and https://github.com/DanielKeep/rust-conv/issues/16 are examples of serious issues that have been ignored.

I'll start looking for alternatives.

Some alternatives:

  • https://crates.io/crates/num-conv (used by time crate, so likely already in dependency tree)
  • https://github.com/Clikengo/usize_cast and https://crates.io/crates/convi for usize <-> u64/u32 conversions
  • az
  • num-traits
