PSA: minimp3-rs is maintained again

Hey everyone,

Just a quick PSA for those interested in the minimp3-rs crate.

After about 4 years of bit rot, I’ve officially taken over maintainership from the original author, who no longer has the capacity to continue development. Big thanks to them for passing the torch!

If you’ve encountered issues with this crate in the past:

The compilation bug blocking usage is fixed as of version 0.5.2.

Version 0.6.0 (soon to be released) is a freshly modernized release with Rust 2024 edition, various code improvements, and more.

Currently, the biggest open issue is the dependency on slice-ring-buffer (see issue #48). If anyone has bandwidth to help out (code contributions) — I’d really appreciate it and am happy to review and merge pull requests.

Thanks for your support!
