Looking for maintainers

[drdrsh]

We are looking for maintainers to oversee the support and development of Makara. We are no longer using Makara at Instacart and we are unable to dedicate the time and resources to maintain it.

If you or your company/group are interested in maintaining Makara, please leave a note on this issue.

@drdrsh have you moved away from mysql or using something else?

[drdrsh]

We are mainly on PostgreSQL.
We built a drop-in replacement for Postgres Makara in-house.

Thanks for the transparency about not using Makara at Instacart anymore.

Would it be possible to give more details about why you went with an in-house solution? Are there any known design pitfalls with Makara that were hard to change? This might be useful as a "post mortem" for people stumbling upon this or who want to take over the gem :)
