--- Comment #11 from Ben Beasley code@musicinmybrain.net --- Notes on the ancient/unmaintained status of this crate:
The last release was nine years ago, and the crate appears unmaintained upstream. However, it is a legitimate dependency for the current *stable* release (0.3.0) of the markdown crate, which itself is in kind of a weird state: 0.3.0 was released over four years ago, then a total rewrite started with a new primary maintainer, with alpha releases steadily trickling out over the past two years or so. Some projects now depend on alpha versions of markdown, and some depend on stable 0.3.0, and effectively these are two different crates sharing a name and an identity on crates.io. Under these circumstances, packaging rust-pipeline seems to make sense. It is at least simple enough that it should not be too troublesome to maintain without upstream support. Hopefully it can be dropped if the markdown rewrite ever reaches the point where it makes a stable release, and upstream projects can be encouraged to update their dependencies.
