Appirater Description: A library for your iOS app that gently reminds your best users to review the app. The project has over 4000 stars on GitHub and is widely used in lots of popular apps, however, I don't have much time to devote to maintenance/improvement. It's a small library, so it's easy to jump into. The functionality is limited (but very useful), so there's not a lot of need for constant changes to it either. What to do this month: Fix compiler warnings brought on by the release of Xcode 8. Skills: Objective-C GitHub: https://github.com/arashpayan/appirater/issues/242 How to help: Send me (Arash) an email (arash -at- ara.sh) and let me know you want to help out. I'm looking for a long term maintainer for the project, so if you can provide a couple good pull requests, I'd be happy to give commit access. License: MIT/X11 Thanks for
