Seeking new maintainer / project owner #146

Open ivan opened 5 years ago

skip to 2023 update below

I am overcommitted and request that someone else take a look at maintaining grab-site.

There are a lot of things in the issue backlog that could be fixed.

I expect to have very little time to work on grab-site in the future, but I may be able to provide some guidance around the code either here or on the ArchiveTeam IRC channels.

I'm interested in assuming a role as maintainer. Please feel free to contact me directly @ brandon at brandongalbraith dot com.

Looks like a maintainer was found.

Thanks! I will probably end up granting commit rights or ownership to contributors who send PRs that are mostly correct.

A potential starter issue: https://github.com/ludios/grab-site/issues/145 suggests grab-site needs either a different install_requires or a pypi release for https://github.com/ludios/wpull. The grab-site README and travis build also needs an update to avoid using the now-missing pip option.

Hello. We are wondering if you would be interested in selling grab-site.

@ivan who was the new maintainer? I am looking to help out. Just when I have free time, so small things.

ivan commented 4 years ago

We do not have a new maintainer yet (I don't know why "Looks like a maintainer was found." is above), but any github.com/ArchiveTeam person is authorized to give repo permissions to someone with good commits.

2023 update:

I am now overcommitted with many other projects and will probably not be able to update grab-site for > Python 3.8, a newer ludios_wpull, Docker support, the improvements to the dashboard made in ArchiveBot, or some now-necessary updates to the ignore lists.

If you're in the ArchiveTeam organization, you are welcome to start committing good commits and tagging versions.

If not, please work in a fork for a bit and someone will later give you write access to this repo if grab-site is not being made worse :) I will probably be around to provide a little feedback or old rationales if needed.
