Re: Takeover / Comaintainership of Selda

For such cases there's the NMU I believe: https://github.com/haskell-infra/hackage-trustees/blob/master/policy.md#3-so... On February 17, 2021 8:15:17 PM UTC, Thomas DuBuisson wrote:

I know, right? I thought I addressed that - happy to wait a few weeks to see if the maintainer comes back on line (that makes it well over a month) and I'm really not looking to be "the" maintainer. For any package that aspires to be used in production it shouldn't be hard to get fixes to critical bugs upstream in weeks and people do deserve vacations so that's why I volunteered to co-maintain. Also, following Oleg's lead, the exact intended actions are included in the request so everyone's clear even when the changes are low volume.

I should hope that if i go on vacation, my packages are not in jeopardy. That seems like a ridiculously short time to wait before trying a takeover.

I ask to take comaintainership of the four selda-* packages on hackage.

While Anton was active months ago there are fixes that have languished for three weeks. I haven't heard from Anton in over a month, including on my offer to co-maintain a couple weeks back. It isn't my intent to full take over, just help maintain.

My first points of action would be: - Merge the three most recent PRs of two critical bug fixes and a clean up. These would have to go on my own fork for the time being. - Release

I know 3 weeks is short in the Haskell world for a package takeover. I only want to co-maintain and am ready to wait a while after sending this message in to see if Anton (CCed) awakens.
