Asyncio support and mordernization the whole project

[Revolution1]

Is this project still maintained?

I'm looking for a RPC framework that can split the modules of my prject into multiple microservices, without needing to write too much redundant server/client code. Like if I use GRPC, I have to write a bunch of proto files, a server, and a client.

ZeroRPC looks good and pythonic enough to do the work.

But as I start trying it, it's too outdated. It still using gevent and does not support asyncio.

So instead of wrap all the functions in my project into sync function, I think mordernizing this project might be a better choice.

I'm making a modernized zerorpc, with asyncio and only python >=3.10 support.

Are you maintainers interested this change? If so will you take it to this project? OR I can just create a new repo maybe named like aiozeromq.

It is maintained... is in that I am welcoming pull requests ;) This project has be stable for a long time. Indeed now that python2 is far behind, and asyncio 10y old, it makes sense to shift over. I think that there is also no need to maintain compatibility with the older version of the protocol that did not support multiplexing. I will be happy to take the migration in, giving you maintainer access of course. It might make sense to create the branch "asyncio", and migrate the code. When ready, this can become the new mainline, with the version 2.0. I recommend trying to support the oldest possible version of Python with asyncio though. This usually makes adoption easier for users. I will be happy to review the code and answer any questions. Let me know what you think.
