Seeking new maintainer! #21

Open leeper opened 6 years ago

leeper commented 6 years ago

This package is not being actively maintained. If you're interested in contributing or taking over, please express your interest here.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Not sure that I'd totally take over, but I might be up for signing-on in part to help maintain. If someone else is interested, I'll gladly defer. If you don't hear from anyone by July 1, would you like to do a Skype call to talk about this a bit?

leeper commented 6 years ago

Sure.

nfultz commented 6 years ago

@DeclareDesign (@jaspercooper @graemeblair and @acoppock) were thinking of using dataverse, may be interested in future of this package.

pdurbin commented 6 years ago

Great! I also left you a comment over at https://github.com/DeclareDesign/DesignLibrary/issues/70#issuecomment-398106850

If there's anything we can do to help you get up to speed, please let us know!

@monogan I've been waiting to reply to thank you until my slides from last week were published: https://twitter.com/philipdurbin/status/1007680649136832518 . I gave your website (and use of Dataverse widgets) a shout out:

Thanks to all for you interest in becoming maintainers! We will be happy to put your name up in lights at future versions of http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.9/api/client-libraries.html#r

ghost commented 6 years ago

Thanks for the shout-out and web traffic, @pdurbin. I'll also mention to anyone on this thread that if someone would like to be the chief maintainer, that's great, and I'll gladly defer. I'm certainly willing to offer a helping hand to keep this project active, though.

tmrozewski commented 6 years ago

Hello all - is this package being maintained now or is it still in limbo?

pdurbin commented 6 years ago

@tmrozewski I'm not sure. Are you interested in helping? 😄

tmrozewski commented 6 years ago

If I could I would - sadly, I don't have the chops!

leeper commented 6 years ago

@monogan has expressed interest in taking over and is exploring it.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Hi everyone! I write to confirm that @leeper is right. Literally about 24 hours before @tmrozewski posted this, I had been in touch with Thomas about what it would take for me to pick up the point on this. I've got to work through some stuff to make sure I can swing it, but will let you know if we make that transition.

Oh yea, and thank you Thomas @leeper for writing the package!

maxheld83 commented 6 years ago

love this package; it's such important work, thanks to @leeper. Ping me if I can chip something in @monogan; I'm reasonably competent in pkg management and ci/cd stuff, though still a dataverse newbie.

pdurbin commented 6 years ago

@maxheld83 we were all Dataverse newbies once. Please feel free to pop in http://chat.dataverse.org if you have any questions! 😄

ghost commented 6 years ago

Thank you @maxheld83. I haven't had a chance to dig into this yet. If you'd like to get involved, I can pass along some of what @leeper gave me to look over, and we can continue to discuss this. Feel free to shoot me an e-mail to continue this conversation!

maxheld83 commented 5 years ago

I currently don't have the bandwidth to take this on and am not currently using dataverse in any way, but will volunteer when both of those change.

pdurbin commented 5 years ago

I just invited @wibeasley to join https://github.com/orgs/IQSS/teams/dataverse-client-r/members which is the current "Admin" team (@leeper you're still in there as well).

This was after I merged pull request #24 by @wibeasley to get the tests passing on Travis and after he wrote some very nice messages at https://groups.google.com/d/msg/dataverse-community/j-cGlnpKs14/zW99LiLJAwAJ

THANK YOU, Will! I'm looking forward to working with you! Closing!

wibeasley commented 5 years ago

@leeper & @pdurbin, Thanks for including me. I have two questions/requests.

  1. Will you add me to the GitHub team so I can make changes to these branches? I won't make changes directly to the master branch.
  2. @leeper, would you like to remain as the official "maintainer" defined by CRAN? This is the person that has to respond when CRAN sends warnings & notifications when the package needs to be updated (eg, a package dependency has made some backward-incompatible changes that is now breaking our code)

For quick reference, here are guidelines for the roles. And remember that the maintainer is poorly named the "creator"

pdurbin commented 5 years ago

@wibeasley hi! Yes, that's what I meant when before I said that I invited you to join the "team" on GitHub. I'm still seeing "pending":

I think if you go to your GitHub notifications there will be a link you can click to join the team? I'm not sure. Or maybe an email went out? I'll re-open this issue until this is resolved.

Opening the issue for a call for new maintainer. See https://groups.google.com/g/dataverse-community/c/O81Bt4iTsbY/m/K6S3MX9BDwAJ
