Is the project still maintained?
I see no activity from the core maintainers @wbarnha and @patkivikram here, although there are some new (and old) issues.

From my experience the project is very mature and needs little maintenace—but, like any software, some is needed to keep up with newer versions of python and the ecosystem. Besides these "implementation details", Ask's abstractions are timeless, and in my opinion, the most elegant that I've seen in software. As you can tell, I'm a big fan. In the meantime, @dada-engineer is doing a great job to keep up the community alive. Join the discussion on Slack: https://faust.readthedocs.io/en/latest/introduction.html#slack-channel

Thank you @nucflash.

@ArtemIlinArammeem unfortunatelly you are right and the issue IMO is much more fundamental than faust-streaming itself. The aiokafka lib also has seen no release in over a year now, and has some issues with kafka v4 IMO (topic creation for faust assignor leader fails).

faststream (as an alternative) offers direct pydantic and fastapi integration (these are the tools of modern software in python IMO). I do belive there are some short comings such as tables and windows if you need this, but for pure processing you might be tempted to try this.

@dada-engineer yes, faststream is really promising, and I already use it, but still we have some older services on faust-streaming.

Hi everyone,

I've been gone for a while- I retired from software engineering to pursue law school. And yet here I am again. I'll take a look at some of the issues if I find time.
