No worries, I am carving out time here and there to work on it.

There are 2 heavy lifts here, both of which I think need to be done 
before a release.

1. I need to "rebase" the code. And by rebase, I mean create a new 
branch based on the existing master, and implement the changes again. So 
much of the safe branch involves the tests, and the tests have been 
completely factored out into an integration project, so a true rebase 
would be painful and likely wrong.
2. The documentation generation absolutely has to work. This is going to 
be a very different experience in terms of how you use the library for 
the immediate future. So I need the docs to reflect how to use this 
library, and have them automatically build and publish. I plan to use 
github actions for this, I just have to find the time to do it.

For certain, the safe branch is top priority for this project. I have so 
many warnings in vibe that say unsafety is deprecated, please use a safe 
function, and I can't because all of my backend db code is unsafe. So I 
cringe and occasionally sprinkle @trusted tags here or there, but I want 
to definitely move to all @safe code (where possible).
