Hi Vivian,

First, thank you for maintaining the Quarry.

A couple of questions from a technical perspective.

First, based on GitHub requirements.txt the library versions used in the
app are older than the latest ones, and T169452 also hints at growing
technical debt in terms of updating code. However, are there known blockers
for updating them?  Ie. Does Quarry use something abandoned and blocks
updating others, or is there something else that would require a rewrite?
Or is it that updating is expected to work, but it just takes someone's
time to do it?

Secondly, is there something that would prevent moving it to Toolforge? I
am unsure if it would be a viable solution, but it would reduce the
maintenance burden if volunteers would maintain it, so I am asking what
would be blocking it.

Also, it would be worth creating a Phabricator ticket for moving
maintenance to the next person, describing what it would require and how it
could be done.  I do not know if there would be anyone, but for example, my
use case for Quarry is sharing SQL queries and query results with
wikieditors, and as long results aren't cached and reading the results
requires OAUTH-login Superset doesn't work.

Br,
