I was using resque-multi-job-forks plugin for quite a some time. What was bugging me is that the project seemed to be abandoned. There were no new commits for 2 years. And current version of the gem had dependency on an archaic version of Resque. So, I forked, bumped the dependency and bundled the gem. But then I thought: “Hey, why not share it with people?” I exchanged a couple of emails with the owner and now I am the official owner/maintainer of said gem. This is my first takeover, hooray! :)
To celebrate this, today I have released version v0.3.2, which includes updated resque
dependency and fix for the problem when workers disappeared from resque-web after the first
fork has reached its limit.
