Hello,

I halted the development of that project. I think maintaining a fast
moving Telegram bot library when I can't move fast is not productive.
So, instead of developing a Telegram bot library ourselves, we had
better use an external actively maintained library and contribute to
it. I recently contributed to this Telegram bot library:

  https://github.com/reo7sp/tgbot-cpp/pull/331

It's also the Telegram bot library I am actively using today. While it
may not fully cover the latest upstream Telegram Bot API methods and
structs, at least we have a good enough framework to keep up the
upstream. You may want to examine the header files here to see how
kept up it is with the upstream:

  https://github.com/reo7sp/tgbot-cpp/tree/master/include/tgbot/types

I think the current state of that library is adequate to create a
Telegram bot with rich features. So, my recommendation is: Let's use
that library and contribute to it.

Another good thing about using an external library is that, we have
more users, so we have more coverage. People report bugs that they find.
It helps us discover problems that we may not be aware yet.

Thanks,
