• RSVP - Intent to maintain org-mode's Debian package?

    From Nicholas D Steeves@21:1/5 to All on Mon Mar 25 22:20:02 2024
    Dear Sébastien,

    Are you still interested in maintaining this package? It's been a
    couple of years since you've worked on the team repository, so some of
    the team are wondering. Please let us know at your earliest
    convenience.

    Regards,
    Nicholas

    Hi Nicholas,

    I unfortunately do not have the available spare time required to
    properly take care of org-mode and org-mode-doc: my last update was
    circa 2020 IIRC, and the team's taken care of all the uploads in the
    past 3 years so I wasn't aware my lack of involvement was raising
    questions or issues. Is there anything I can do to make things
    easier/clearer for you? I just noticed I'm still listed in the Uploaders
    field, is that maybe the issue? I'd be happy to remove that.

    Cheers,

    --

    Hello Sébastien,

    Thank you for such a quick reply, and I hope that your circumstances are inspiring-busy rather than stressful-busy! Our team had trouble
    tracking under-maintained packages the last release cycle, org-mode fell through the cracks, and the recent CVEs reminded me to finally check-in
    with you about the package. Sorry if this came across as pushy and all
    at once.

    Yes, thank you, please update Uploaders for org-mode and org-mode docs
    if you're not reviewing the package, and don't worry because at least
    two of us are willing to take responsibility for it :)

    Debian Emacsen also has a couple of new members, so if you'd like to
    divest yourself of any other packages now would be a great time to email
    the team with a list of them.

    Best,
    Nicholas

    I believe org-mode and org-mode-doc were the only 2 packages I ever got involved in as far as elisp goes.

    Hmm, this situation is not valid -- there must be a human in the
    Maintainer field if there is no Uploaders field, as required by the MIA
    team. We now can't upload the package without someone adding their name
    or us moving it to the QA team.

    Yup, and openness to a transfer of responsibility is what this thread is
    about. If you're genuinely bothered by the hours-long gap state, please
    let me know how much (PM is fine if preferred). Would you please
    clarify if your reply was a mere statement of fact, or if you intended
    or hoped it would affect someone's behaviour? Ie: Did you mean "in the
    future please coordinate the handover of responsibility in a more formal
    way, it…"?

    Thanks! I've added myself as one of the Uploaders because org-mode is essential software to me (maybe obvious from the changelog).

    Debian Emacsen also has a couple of new members, so if you'd like to
    divest yourself of any other packages now would be a great time to

    I believe org-mode and org-mode-doc were the only 2 packages I ever got involved in as far as elisp goes.

    Wonderful, so there's nothing more to worry about. Bookworm's org-mode
    is an empty dependency package. We have an upstream org-mode contact
    who has been helping out on the BTS, so hopefully the only mail you'll
    see is a bit of noise from work on old bugs.

    I wish you the best with your other pursuits,
    Nicholas

    I don't think we should render an package unuploadable by removing
    someone's name in this way.
