Description
Context
We are using several third-party packages for performing trivial work and introducing dependencies for that reason is better to be avoided.
Proposed Solution
- We should drop the usage of the following crates:
-
bit_iter - #469
-
crc -
crossbeam_channel - #426
-
eui48 - #402
- #425
- #424
See Also
Issue #459, for a related Issue with crc.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; begin by locating usages of the unchecked crates bit_iter, crc, crossbeam_channel, and eui48, and review issue #459 for related crc work. Done means those dependencies and their usages are removed while the project still builds.
