Maintainer is deceased

It looks like @soumak77 tragically passed away last year.

I'll be initiating a name dispute on NPM and accepting pull requests at my own fork. Anyone else willing to help out?

This made me sad to hear. Rest in peace. 🕊️

I don't have the bandwidth to contribute much right now. Best of luck!

Please let us know if/when you complete the name dispute on NPM; there are some important issues that need to be addressed in the library. (on whichever fork becomes connected to the npm module)

Also: Rest in peace, Brian! 🕊

I've now gone back and forth with NPM and they are sticking to their standard four-week deadline for package owners to respond to name disputes. So the soonest we could expect to get publish permissions is 1 December.

For now I'll begin publishing updates from my fork. Anyone who wants an issue or PR prioritized is welcome to re-open it there. We'll start with a 2.3.0 release incorporating whichever open PRs are ready, and then work toward a 3.0.0 release to get up to date with the previous year's breaking changes to the Firebase SDK.

Rest in peace. 💐
