Next steps for miow

[tokcum]

Hi,

I'm working on Apache Thrift to implement support for Windows Named Pipes. I was excited about miow because it already has many features I need for a neat integration but I'm also missing some features, e.g.

1. the ability to clone a NamedPipe to have a ReadHalf and a WriteHalf (required by today's Thrift API).
2. an iterator over incoming connections analogous to UnixListener. This could be done in Thrift. However, I think it would be better to have this available in miow.

I'm willing to implement those features in miow. However, in the README it says "This crate is basically unmaintained. Do not expect new features or new releases.".

Does this mean a PR has not chance to get merged? Is something going on in the background to get miow back into a maintained state? Please advice on how to proceed with this.

Thank you.
