Has there been any movement on having someone else maintain ODEINT? I don't 
know that I would be of much use, but I'm willing to help where I can.

There is one other issue that isn't critical, but it would save our group from 
having to do some hand editing of ODEINT for use with our project. Some of the 
paths are long enough that after they're included in our project they have 
nonportable lengths, requiring use to rename them. I made an issue last year: 
https://github.com/boostorg/odeint/issues/54.

Changing the names would surely break code, and I don't know if this is a 
feasible change. Given that it's pretty easy for people to update include 
directives though, maybe it's not too intrusive. If it's a welcome change, I 
can submit a PR on GitHub.

Best wishes,
Justin

Thank you everyone. It would be great if someone could continue managing the 
package. It's a great resource.

Best wishes,
Justin

Karsten,

Thanks. Would you be interested in new maintainers stepping in for the library? 
Nick Thompson (cced) and I are maintainers on several other Boost libraries 
(math, multiprecision, random, and test), and we would be interested in helping 
out. He’s a mathematician, and I am a full-time Boost developer. If you would 
like to schedule a call or anything to discuss we can do that.

Matt
