https://crates.io/crates/utf8parse last release is 0.2.2 , and it is no longer in the repo https://github.com/alacritty/vte
I started a discussion at alacritty/vte#122 (comment) , and a maintainer there indicates there is a willingness to re-host it in that org. However maybe maintenance of it would be better in the @rust-cli org , or an alternative is found.
Note that #219 by @mondeja recently tried to make utf8parse optional. It would be useful to know how useful this functionality is.
