Bring the project to FSProjects management

Opened this issue · 2 comments

It would be nice to have FSProjects coordinators as managers of NuGet packages and this org to ensure the project is maintained.

Like fsprojects/Rezoom.SQL#57 (comment)

First and foremost: for a project to be maintained you need a thorough understanding of it, and time/desire to move it forward. Neither of these (should) depend on where the project resides.

If anyone feels passionate about a project and wants to volunteer their time/help to it, they can simply take a role in that project or just contribute directly like everyone else via PRs. The "... but, an incubation space provides more visibility" argument only holds when we assume newcomers somehow need to be guided and told what projects to look at and invest time in. On that angle, I'd much rather work towards an ecosystem where newcomers can formulate their own opinion after due diligence and projects get the attention they deserve, and not what special-status groups/people allow for them to get. Decentralization FTW!

Also, on a more practical note, Bolero is already a GitHub org on its own with multiple related repositories, so it makes sense to keep them together as they are now. If anyone wants to help with NuGet packages or enlisting more maintainers, this organization is happy to have them.

As a user of Bolero, I must say that the project is really well maintained and that I see no need for change.
