New maintainership? #54

Closed IreneKnapp closed 10 years ago

IreneKnapp commented 10 years ago

Hi, all.

I am very proud of what direct-sqlite has grown to become. I don't mind admitting that it's been the most successful project I've ever placed in the wild, and several of you have contributed numerous important patches and design discussion.

I've had a consistent pattern over the past year of responding to pull requests more slowly, and I'll note that none of the most important patches have been written by me!, and I think it's probably time to, at the very least, give other people commit bits and hand off the responsibility for Hackage uploads. I think anyone willing to do this also deserves to be credited as author, so I'm more than happy to pass off ownership of the repo if someone wants to step up.

Thoughts on who it should be? I'd like this to be by consensus of all the regular contributors. My own nomination would be @nurpax because they've been very consistent and appear to understand the design issues as well as I do. @joeyadams is the second obvious choice. I feel like @lykahb, @sethfowler, and @mwotton should at the very least get to participate in this discussion as well. Did I leave anybody out? Please feel free to pull whoever you want into this thread.

(Oh, and I am likely to soon be in an employment situation where being the maintainer would be more difficult for me legally... So there's that, too.)

I am no longer an active Haskell developer (we use .NET at my current job), so I wouldn't be reliable in handling contributions and posting updates to Hackage. I agree with your nomination of @nurpax.

@IreneKnapp I'm fine with taking over maintainership for direct-sqlite. Thanks for nominating me. :) I'll probably keep on pinging you and @joeyadams in PR reviews.

I don't typically use Haskell in my $DAYJOB but hopefully I should be able to put time aside in my spare time.

@IreneKnapp I'll shoot you an e-mail on logistics.

Thanks, @nurpax. You have my email, I think. :)

nurpax commented 10 years ago

Done.

mwotton commented 10 years ago

@IreneKnapp thanks for all your hard work, and I for one welcome our new @nurpax overlord :)

I did my first direct-sqlite release on Hackage today. Here's what went in:
