AssertJ module

[aahlenst]

Have you thought about supporting AssertJ instead of/in addition to fest-assert-2.x? fest-assert-2.x is dormant and if it comes to life again chances are it is going to be less useful (there are plans to remove a lot of assertions, see alexruiz/fest-assert-2.x#159 and https://github.com/joel-costigliola/assertj-core#why-have-we-forked-fest-assert). I'd be willing to provide a patch, but it would be a breaking change (packages have to be renamed) and eventually involve renaming the project to assertj-android.

Related, the FEST link in the README doesn't point to a page that exists still.

@aahlenst I would suggest that an assertj-android project shoudl exist as a different entity, completely independent of fest-android.

[aahlenst]

@f2prateek I agree. Maybe even under the umbrella of the AssertJ project.

But before taking any actions I like to hear from @JakeWharton whether he's ok with it or if he/Square has other plans. Creating a fork is easy, maintaing it in the long term not so much.

Can we wait until after the new year to decide? I haven't taken a long enough look to have a strong opinion yet.

I've created https://github.com/avh4/assertj-android for my own personal use, and plan on trying to keep it up-to-date on a ~monthly basis for now until there's an official decision on what to do with this. FEST no longer seems to be being maintained, and their website no longer exists, so I've been switching all my projects to AssertJ.

@JakeWharton Have you made up your mind yet? Would you approve a fork?

[imminent]

Forks are naturally accepted. Do you mean to merge assn AssertJ back into
the main library?
