Project Maintenance Status
Closed this issue · 15 comments
PRs seem not to be reviewed and no reaction to comments.
Therefore: Is this project still maintained?
If not: Would it be possible to transfer the project as well as all of the package manager permissions to a new maintainer?
If that would be an option, I would move this project into its own organisation and offer myself as the first maintainer.
Sorry for not responding quicker here.
Trouble is in fact that our (only) erlang developer left the institute.
All I could do is run tests and then accept PRs, but I don't think I'm capable of reviewing the code.
We have the access rights to transfer the repo to a different organisation, if you like to take this over.
@marcvs Thanks for your answer.
I've written a message in the elixir forum to see if people are interested in co-maintaining the lib. https://elixirforum.com/t/oidcc-project-maintainer/37260
I'd wait for a week or so to see if there's any interest. Depending on the outcome of that post, we can decide what actions makes sense.
For sure I don't want it to get abandoned, so my support on the matter is clear.
@marcvs I'm going to go ahead and open a new organisation for the project. Since I'm a little short on time right now, I'll start preparing in around a week.
I'll post some details as soon as I'm ready so you can review it.
Cool. In addition, we have a person that will take a look at the code.
@marcvs Sorry again for taking that long.
The reason is that I was looking for someone to help with reviewing the code since I myself am not well acquainted with the erlang tooling since I mostly work with Elixir instead.
I think that it might be good to move forward anyways since it will benefit the project to not let it lay around any longer.
I have set up the organization https://github.com/Erlang-Openid
My short-term plan would be to do all updates necessary for all projects and to begin implementing JSON Web Token (JWT) Profile
.
Long term I'd like to make sure that the library at least stays updated / fix occurring bugs.
I would propose the following steps:
- Tell me wich people you would like to have in the new organization.
- Transfer the repo to said organization
-
erljwt
-
oidcc
-
oidcc_cowboy
-
oidcc_psycho
-
- Add
maennchen
as maintainer on Hex for those projects
@maennchen Many thanks for taking it up!
Let's move to the Erlang-Openid github organisation. I think these people should be members:
I'm waiting to become admin for the other three repos...
The original owner at hex is not sure if we can add / transfer ownership in the free version used.
We're working on this.
Rather than cloning the repositories back, we can rely on githubs forwarding.
In addition, I've added a tag 'latest-indigo-release' to all repositories (hoping that it won't break versioning)
@marcvs Adding an owner should be rather easy:
Using mix
: mix hex.owner add [oidcc|erljwt] maennchen
Using rebar3
: rebar3 hex owner add [oidcc|erljwt] jonatan@maennchen.ch
(Never tried this myself with rebar)
@marcvs Did you find a way about the permissions? I'd like to release a stable version that runs on OTP 24 :)
We have contacted the original developer via several ways, forwarding your ownerchange requests. But there was no response yet.
We will keep on trying.
Should be done now.
I will also add you to oidcc_psycho and oidcc_cowboy, which I missed to add you to @maennchen
added you also as owner for oidcc_cowboy. oidcc_psycho is not on hex as psycho itself is not on hex.pm
