Hello everyone!
I am looking for one or more individuals to take over the mongodb and mongodb_ecto packages. My company no longer uses MongoDB and I have not really been keeping up with the packages as much as I should. If anyone is interested in taking over the package, or just helping out with it, let me know and I will do what I can in order to help you get started with the codebase.

Probably I will be tasked to maintain it anyway, as my current company already does that as we added few features (transactions) to Your driver.

If you want, I can give you commit access to the repository. Or, if you prefer, I can transfer the repository to the organization/user of your choosing.

We can move it over to our organization, what I have to do?
Ankhers
I just need the organization name on GitHub, as well as at least one hex.pm account name so you can continue to push updates.

Thank you @deadtrickster and @hauleth for stepping up to maintain it.

I just finished transferring the packages and wanted to say thank you to @deadtrickster and @hauleth, as well as anyone else at KOBIL Systems for taking over these packages!

@deadtrickster @hauleth - it looks like the
mongodbandmongo_ectopackages could do with some TLC. I had a quick look today what it might take to provide ecto 3.x compatibility but I quickly got stuck in broken tests so I thought I’d ask first. Do you have any plans to provide any updates soon, and if not do you have any guidance on what needs to be updated?Thanks!

At TableCheck we’d really love to see these better maintained as well. We are a Ruby/Elixir + Mongo company but TBH the experience using Elixir+Mongo has been rocky at best – especially compared to Ruby’s fantastic Mongoid library.
If looks like zookzook/elixir-mongodb-driver has now eclipsed kobil-systems/mongodb in terms of functionality. I would propose there should be a project to move
mongo_ectoto use thezookzookdriver and also upgrade to Ecto 3. We could commit some resources to this on our end if others are willing to help as well.peoj
Glad you agree.
I’m happy to put in some effort but it’d be really great if one of the maintainers could give an idea of what’s required to give a little head start!
As for the choice of mongo driver, I have no strong opinions; the existing one seems fine for most purposes. Whatever gives us the best way for encouraging further contributions and better maintenance going forward.
