Hi!
I am an Iranian student. Currently nongnu.org hosts an important piece of
software for Iranian people called 'jcal'. Here's the link:
https://www.nongnu.org/jcal/
However due to an unfortunate accident the owner of this repo, a prominent
figure in Iranian free software, has died:
Source 1: https://jadi.net/2017/10/ashkan-ghasemi/
Source 2: https://meidaan.com/ashkan
Source 3: https://mehdix.ir/rip-ashkan.html
You can use Google Translate or an AI of your choosing to translate the
sources above (which are actually quite old now), or just search فوت
اشکان قاسمی (Death of Ashkan Ghasemi) by yourself.
I would be very grateful if you let me (based in Iran), or the person behind
https://github.com/persiancal (based in Berlin) take ownership of the repo.
Currently NixOS is using the new version of the tool, however for effective
and more expedient adoption it'd be awesome if you could handle the ownership
change.
Many thanks,
Hossein.
