Continued maintenance of the project

[karlokr-p]

Hello,

I want to thank the authors for their hard work delivering this excellent software. We currently use django-trench to provide for MFA in our application and it works very well.

Unfortunately, we have noticed that this repository has been unmaintained for some time. My software team at Panevo would like to help maintain the project. We have set up a fork https://github.com/panevo/django-trench-reboot to this end that we plan to maintain indefinitely should it become necessary, but we are more than happy to contribute to the project here. Particularly, we are concerned about Django 4.2 compatibility and beyond as we are planning to upgrade our production systems from Django 3.2 to 4.2. If the maintainers of the project here can let me know the status of the long term maintenance of this project, please let me know.

Thanks

👋 I'm not a maintainer, but I'm interested in helping maintain this project as well. Let me know if you need any help with it! I'll be looking to fork this (probably will fork your repo) and begin maintaining it myself under a new name or I can just go off of yours.

Hi, for anyone planning to fork or maintain django-trench, you might want to check out DRF Auth Kit. It’s a recently launched project that builds on ideas from django-trench and updates from dj-rest-auth, with a focus on modern Django practices — including full type hinting, improved MFA support, OpenAPI schema integration, and cleaner setup.

More details and motivations here:
🔗 #233

It could be a helpful starting point or alternative if you’re looking for something more up to date with current Django versions.
