homebrew-bio abandoned: replacement? #1618

It looks like homebrew-bio is abandoned, since nothing has been merged after Jan 21, 2023.

Is there a suggested replacement?

Hi, bredelings,

I was introduced to this great homebrew-bio project by @sjackman. I have created several Formulas so far, including pymol.
However, The Circle CI has not been maintained recently, so there are no new commits or fixes being made. Unfortunately, I do not know how to fix it and would like @sjackman or someone else to do it.
If the CI is recovered, I'll maintain them as my time permits. However, I think it might help a lot of people if some important Formulas can migrate to homebrew-core. I'd like to get comments on this from other contributors, @tseemann or @jonchang.

I'm in a similar boat, if we can get CI working here again, I can help push things forward

Hi Ben and others, none of us really use Homebrew for our jobs anymore, and (at least on my part) there is little motivation to work on any Homebrew-related projects uncompensated seeing as how much work it ends up becoming. I also don't have permission to grant maintainer access to other contributors for this repository (only Shaun does)

CI for third-party repositories for Homebrew has always been awkward given the workflow is not identical across first-party and third-party taps. It should be possible to fix this tap's CI strictly through external pull requests but I can't justify spending any time on it other than checking that CI tests are green.

With #1605 we might have CI working again?

With a review I can merge that pull request, we can run through a bunch of the pending pull requests, and then work out how to put discovardenovo back together again.

I think we're up and running again! Please rebase your pending pull requests and I'll try to get them merged as soon as possible
