reaching out to the #rstats / #databs hivemind --- I'm looking for a maintainer! nplyr is a small R package I shipped to CRAN a few years ago that allows users to perform dplyr-like operations on nested data frames. If you'd like to take over, please follow up here:

Hello! First post here.
So good to see some familiar names that made the move from that other platform.
For those following me, expect posts about statistics, population health, and some social commentary for good measure.
