MAC Address Extension - Project Status? #254

@pboulos

Description

@pboulos

Hello everyone,

At my company Kepler we use functionality provided by netaddr in an application named NetBox. Recently, we've had need to extend the functionality of netaddr with regards to MAC addresses.

Specifically, we have added the below classes:

  • EUISet (a set of EUI addresses).
  • EUIRange (a range of EUIs with an upper and lower bound)
  • EUIPrefix (a prefix such as 0A:B9:2C:FG:E that represents a collection of EUIs)

You can see the changes in a forked version of the library in this sample PR (kepler-space#1).

Is this project being actively maintained? I know the ipaddress module in the standard library overlaps withh netaddr in terms of functionality, and as such netaddr hasn't been maintained as actively.

What are your thoughts @jstasiak @drkjam? Tagging you both because you were involved last time when it was raised whether this library would be maintained.
