Re: 'temporary' package

Indeed. Especially since there are people with active hakage trustee powers, a request on the libraries list to fix an immediate breakage when the maintainer is unreachale for some period of time can now be auctioned upon. But this only happens when that request is actually made, along with a concrete fix proposed and evidence that the maintainer is hard to reach. Would somone like to start that request ? Note that this is orthogonal to the issue of who will maintain the lib going forward of course. On Friday, May 9, 2014, Erik Hesselink wrote:

When should we expect a -rc for everything?

I am now looking for backup maintainers for this fork to ensure that a similar situation won't occur again. Contact me off list if you'd like to become one.

Hi Max,

are you still maintaining the 'temporary' package? There's a breakage waiting to be fixed (with a patch): https://github.com/batterseapower/temporary/pull/12

If I don't hear from you in two days, I'll request maintainership and/or fork the package.

Roman
