Is marlin still under development?
Not to be a nag, but it seems that it has been a while without any activity. Is Marlin still under development, or has the developer lost interest?

I lost interest yes.
Well, this sucks. Marlin is already among the best, cleanest file managers for Linux imho. Nonetheless, thank you for your work.

Bad news... :(
Back to Nautilus for me... :(
Will you be open to someone else taking up development?

Aww, snap! This was the only browser that followed nautilus-

Sad to read that. Even with the occasional segfault I prefer marlin over the competition.

Arg, it is really paining me thinking about going backwards to another file browser. Ah, well...
The elementary team agreed to maintain it: http://
Problem solved.

Marlin is still alive and development has started back. Thanks for your positives comments.

So Turkish translation is updated..
ammonkey (am-monkeyd) said : | #12 |
translations have been merged in trunk yes
Very good news; thank you for continuing.
I hope you don't mind asking: What is the relation between marlin and pantheon-files (going to be)?
Given the additional commits in files, it seems more efficient to rejoin both.

Marlin and Pantheon Files can live together, Marlin is the upstream
project, Pantheon Files is a rebranded version of Marlin, but the
projects won't diverge a lot, core things will go to marlin, and if the
elementary team want some UI fixes that we (Marlin developers) don't
like, they will put them in Pantheon Files.
Don't worry, this is managed efficiently, so, we won't lose time because
of these two projects ;) .

Sounds good. Thanks for the answer.
(They could choose a better name than "files", though: With such generic name it'll be a pain to search information for it on Google & co.)

:( just when I've finally moved on and have been using Marlin! But it's still good to know that the development of it has been continued though yeah... "files" *shrugs
