Willing to help..

It looks like you are attempting to turn this into a community-controlled package, which is a great idea given recent events. Since I've been using it at my day job I'd be willing to pitch in and help. FWIW I'm already mentioned in the README, as I wrote the Perl Data::Faker package that it's based on...

@jasonk thank you for the offer. Your copyright has been in this repo for a very long time, so having your background is most appreciated. If you use Discord, we have a nice little community server going - #21 Otherwise, I'd love to get any insight from you in general!

Just woke up this morning and saw the news. It seems because the original author wanted to commercialize the library and failed.

Hi @jasonk , I never thought to ask, so apologies for that, but we're considering sticking with the name "Faker" for the future of this project. I believe you're the original copyright holder to that name, are you ok with us utilizing the name in this project?

I'm fine with that, though the original was actually called Data::Faker as the Perl community frowned on top-level namespaces at the time..
